Travel in 4WD from Queenstown along the shores of Lake Whakatipu on one of New
Zealand's most spectacular scenic drives, surrounded by the Southern Alps,
glacial valleys, braided rivers and native beech forest. Visit 12 Mile Delta
then enjoy a 15 minute scenic walk.

Journey through Glenorchy and Paradise to discover filming locations
associated with Isengard, Fangorn Forest, Ithilien Camp and the Battle of Amon
Hen. Travel towards Paradise with views of Mt Earnslaw, and venture into the
Forest of Lothlórien.

Dress up in replica cloaks, pose with movie props and let your local guide
connect the landscapes to the movies with film imagery, behind-the-scenes
stories and filming insights.

The area has also appeared in The Hobbit, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince

movie fans and scenery lovers alike.

Important Information

This tour visits filming locations rather than movie sets. The original sets
were removed after filming, but many of the landscapes featured in the trilogy
remain instantly recognisable. The tour includes an easy 15 minute return
nature walk on a formed trail; guests who prefer not to walk can remain in or
near the vehicle. Itineraries may change due to weather, river levels, road or
track conditions which may affect river crossings or access to some locations.
