Consider what Beregond said to Pippin at Minas Tirith, before the siege : "Things move in the East beyond the Inland Sea, it is reported ; and north in Mirkwood and beyond ; and south in Harad".

How did Beregond get this information ? Certainly not via Denethor's use of the Palantir, which was secret. There must therefore have been some travelling to and from Gondor and these other parts of Middle Earth.
