At the end of Lord of the Rings trilogy why does.......?

why does Frodo leave at the end. cause he wants to travel like Bilbo did with Gandalf?At the end of Lord of the Rings trilogy why does.......?
Being a bearer of the ring, he has to pass on to the Undying Lands. He carried a corruption with him (all ring bearers do), and in order for Middle-Earth to live on the corruption must be removed.





Think of the ring as a virus of evil. Everyone that has worn it must pass on alongside the elves(which includes Samwise much later, since in the books he wears the ring a time or two).





The Undying Lands is where all immortals must go. Think of it as passing into Heaven for mortals. They don't die, but they do go there. I believe when mortals in LotR die, they too go to the Undying Lands.At the end of Lord of the Rings trilogy why does.......?
His ';era'; had passed, I suppose. He could not live a normal life because he was only half alive from his ring experiences. I suppose he had much physical and emotional pain so he went to the equivalent of heaven in the story. Something like that.
He isn't going to travel, or on any new adventures. He's going to the other side. His experiences as the ring bearer affected him to the point where he could no longer go on with his life.
He had to leave because of his marking on his shoulder he wasn't safe for his friends to be around them so he just left them.
The answer above is absolutely right. I cant even add any more to it.


All the ringbearers had to leave Middle-earth.
Indeed. He had grown to much (if you will excuse the pun) as a hobbit and needed to move on to bigger and better things...
