The term '''East Dales''' probably refers to the northern slopes and valleys of the [[White Mountains]] east of the [[Folde]], in [[Rohan]]. As such it means more or less the same area as [[Eastfold]], a much more common name. In their book [[The Lord of the Rings: A Reader's Companion]] [[Wayne Hammond]] ja [[Christina Scull]] explain the name simply as a synonym for Eastfold, though they do not give any additional sources for this statement.

East Dales are mentioned only once in [[The Lord of the Rings]], when it is told how those of the [[Rohirrim]] who had fallen in the [[Battle of the Hornburg]] were buried in two mounds; those of the [[Westfold]] in one and those from the East Dales in another.
