Gildor's group were pilgrims to the palantir of the tower hills. I thinkit is stated explicitly somewhere. Possibly in the Road goes ever on in which "A Elbereth Gilthoniel" is translated fully revealing it to relate the experience of looking towards Valinor. I think that palantir was fixed to look westwards.
