Lord Of The Ring's
Stay at The Glebe’s luxury Queenstown holiday accommodation and discover the setting for much of the Lord of the Rings.
It is no wonder that much of Tolkien’s Middle Earth was set around the Queenstown area and that the unspoilt majestic landscapes of the adrenaline capital of the world provided many of the scenes for the movie trilogy.
A number of operations now specialise in Lord of the Rings tours, taking those who are interested to recognisable film locations. Fans of the movie can drift past the location of the ‘Pillar of the Kings’ as they float down the Great River Anduin (known to most as the Kawarau). Retire for the night at our Queenstown holiday accommodation and set off in the morning for ‘Deer Park Heights’.
Not far from our Queenstown holiday accommodation, the summit of Deer Park Heights featured in all the trilogies’ films. Memorable scenes include Gandalf riding to Minas Tirith, as well as a scene in which our Hobbit heroes escape from Rohan. Queenstown\'s Remarkables feature as the slopes of Dimrill Dale, while Skippers Canyon is the place of Arwen’s (Liv Tyler’s) encounter with the Black Riders at the Ford of Bruinen.
Local companies offer flights over many of the locations around Glenorchy including those used to depict Isengard, Lothlorien, the Ithilien Camp and Amon Hen.
