A pass hewn through the lowest navigable pass through the Tors of Levenies, Varnhold Pass cradles a major road from Varnhold to a dock on the Shrike River south of the cascades. Before Shrike River Locks were completed, the Varnway through Varnhold Pass was a major economic lifeline for Varnhold, so much so that Maegar Varn established a small fort in the Pass and funded the establishment of a small town around the docks, Varnmeet.
