Step into Middle-earth and beyond. Walk where hobbits walked, or drive the same road as Wolverine.
The Queenstown region is home to some of New Zealand’s most dramatic scenery and its towering mountains, ancient beech forests and glacial fed rivers have provided inspirational backdrops for many productions, with filmmakers and Hollywood stars alike falling under its spell.
Feature films shot here include The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Vertical Limit, 10,000 BC, The Water Horse, 30 Days of Night, Wolverine, Prince Caspian, Any Questions for Ben?, and the Bollywood super-hit I Hate Luv Storys.
Take specialised tours to New Zealand film locations located in the Queenstown region that are even more stunning in real life and put yourself in a film set for the day.
