• Fangorn Forest

    January 21, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    Another LotR filming location. This time, I'm at the site chosen to be Fangorn Forest. The 1st picture looks across the field to the woods used as Fangorn.
    The 2nd picture is of the site where the orcs stopped for a meal when they were taking Merry and Pippin back to Isengard. It is here that the Rohirrim found and killed the orcs, piling their bodies. The 3rd picture looks out over where the Orcs were piled as Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli arrived. The 4th picture is where that threesome entered the forest. The 5th picture is inside the forest.
    The last picture is where they filmed Gandalf (the White, at this point) summoning Shadowfax.
