Gandalf mentiones the reason for not going that way in Fotr:

"Their purpose was to hold their course west of the Mountains for many miles and days. The country was much rougher and more barren than in the green vale of the Great River in Wilderland on the other side of the range, and their going would be slow; but they hoped in this way to escape the notice of unfriendly eyes."
