Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed completely in New Zealand. There were as many as nine individual units filming in the remotest and scenic areas. Since the release of first part of Lord of the Rings many fans have come to New Zealand to seek out the spectacular locations. Below is a guide to these locations with instructions on how to get there.
IMDB links for all three parts:
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120737/
Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0167261/
Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0167260/
Bree
Mt VictoriaFort Dorset in the Wellington suburb of Seatoun was the location for Bree. The exact location is an old army base on Burnham St. The army base has now been demolished and plots of land are now for sale. Another area was the Mirimar Peninsula which is close by. Both areas are very close to the coast of the Wellington harbour. The nearby Chocolate Fish Cafe at Scorching Bay, is where the actors often had lunch and coffee.
Rohan
Lake Pukaki The surrounding area around Poolburn Reservoir on the Rough Ridge Range in the Ida Valley was the location for Rohan. Located 40 minutes from Alexandria, head toward Omakau and turn toward Ophir then drive up and over the Raggedy Range toward Poolburn. From here you will need a 4WD to reach eerie rock formations around Poolburn Reservoir. However the owners of the land can take you there from Rohan and they also offer accommodation
Mordor
Mt DoomWhakapapa Ski Field on Mt Ruapehu in the Tongariro National Park was the location for Mordor. To get there go to Waiouru in the Central Plateau on SH1 and then turn left and go to Ohakune. Keep going through Ohakune to National Park. Turn right at the BP station, following the signs to Whakapapa. From Auckland go SH1 to Turangi and then follow the signs to National Park except turn up to Whakapapa just before National Park.Nearby Mount Tongariro served as the menacing Mount Doom. Tongariro National Park is characterized by 3 volcanoes that rise above a landscape of lava flows and scoria. The region draws skiers in winter.
