Did the Ents help Lothlorien out? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

No, I don't think so! After reading the passage it seems to me that many orcs crossed the Anduin to attack Lothlorien and Rohan from the North and East. Treebeard says about there attack at Lothlorien that they could not come into it, thanks to the Lord and Lady. Rohan however was empty and there the Ents did help by fighting the orcs.
So, they helped defending Rohan from the North and maybe even from the East, but Lothlorien was guarded well enough.

greetings,
