Taren-au-Bac est une ville d'Andor de la région des Deux-Rivières située le long de la Taren qui s'écoule d'Est en Ouest ici. C'est le seul ferry qui traverse cette rivière. La route au Nord mène à Baerlon et celle du Sud vers Colline-au-Guet. A l'Ouest se trouve les Dunes de Sables et au delà, les Montagnes de la Brume.

Les maisons de Taren-au-Bac sont hautes et étroites, construites sur des fondations de pierre hautes pour affronter les crues annuelles du printemps.
