I Traced Almost Every ‘Lord Of The Rings’ Filming Location And Took Some Photos To Show The Difference (13 Pics)
Over two trips to New Zealand, I managed to visit almost every Lord of the Rings filming location on both the North and South islands.
Here are the shots that I was best able to recreate and that lined up with scenes from the movies!

It is unmistakably the same tree. In person, you can also see where Sam was sitting on the roots below.

Makes sense I guess that the Ents would leave a few guards to make sure no one tries to build another tower.

It definitely looks a bit different now but I think it's a combination of the fact that it's more overgrown and some of it in the movie may have been CGI.

It's been an eternity since I've watched the appendicies, but I remember it being freeking cold & poor Andy freezing when he had to be in the water. Maybe the season difference, + nature ever evolving that makes a difference

It's a lot more overgrown since then but it is the same location! They discuss it in the behind the scenes appendices.

They really had some awesome nature to work with... & some people with a ton of imagination to see what could be... Don't know what I'm more in awe of, lol

One of the places on my go to list where I might actually be able to go. Please remain a democracy with decent people, don't know when I'll actually have the means to visit all the way from Europe...
