Quote:
But I think in Vol. II pp. 80-81 it is plain that there would be for Ents no re-union in 'history' - but the Ents and their wives being rational creatures would find some 'earthly paradise' until the end of this world: beyond which the wisdom neither of Elves nor Ents could see. Though maybe they shared the hope of Aragorn that they were 'not bound for ever to the circles of the world and beyond them is more than memory'...'

JRRT, Letter 338
Aman had been removed from the World, and I think the Ents were left to find somewhere within Middle-earth until the End.
