You can say that humans also belong to the old world the same way as dwarves do. Neither is really true, though. Yes, they did exist in the 1st age, but they were like secondary creatures in ME. the Eldar were the "masters" of Belleriand. Now, however, the Elves not only for the minority of ME, but they are nearly forgotten (by that I mean that humans and dwarves forgot what elves are REALLY like and made up a bunch of tales about them). Only a very small number of people (like the Dunadains) still remember and respect the Eldar.
About the ents going to Valinot - it does not say so directly, but LOTR does mention, when talking of Elven songs, that they say that "they will meet overseas". There is one known place overseas that is a good candidate for the meeting spot - Valinor.
I am not enforcing my viewpoint, this is just my opinion. You could think differently
