Best Answer

The High Elves are those elves that back in the First Age followed the summons of the Valar and sailed from Middle-earth to the Undying Lands. Some of these elves returned later in the First Age to fight against Morgoth and a few of those settled again in Middle-earth. Their native language is Quenya, but they rarely use it. Most often they speak Sindarin. Most of the elves at Rivendell are High Elves.

Because the other elves did not fully follow the summons in the First Age, but instead stopped along the way they are considered Lesser Elves. They have a variety of native languages depending on where they stopped and settled. The two most common of these languages are Sindarin and Woodelven. The elves in Mirkwood are a variety of Lesser Elves called Woodelves or Silvan Elves.

Several places in Middle Earth:

  • Rivendell with Elrond
  • Lothlórien with Galadriel
  • The Grey Havens with Círdan the shipwright
  • There are also wandering bands of High Elves throughout the free parts of Middle Earth

The elves that live in Mirkwood are not High Elves, they are a lesser type called Wood Elves.

However many more High Elves live beyond Middle Earth in the Far West with the Valar and Maiar. Ultimately the Far West is open to all elves, but only the High Elves choose to go there when the call went out.
