In briefanswer capsule

Ered Wethrin, called the Mountains of Shadow and also the Shadowy Mountains, are the great curving range that borders Dor-nu-Fauglith on the west. At the same time they form the barrier between Hithlum and West Beleriand, so the arc both flanks Dor-nu-Fauglith westward and divides those two lands.
