Denize Bluffs Farm Hobbit Movie Tours, New Zealand (Shot at 4K UHD)
A video of our visit to the stunning Denize Bluffs farm, where Sir Peter Jackson, director of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy, filmed the most location screen time for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. It was filmed and edited in Ultra HD (UHD) 4K quality.
The towering limestone cliffs, a primeval native forest and massive rock formations on this Piopio farm, near Waitomo became the location for Trollshaws Forest and the home of Sting! You can even have your picture taken with Sting, in the same spot as Gandalf gave it to Bilbo
Scenes filmed there include - The Company arriving at a destroyed farmhouse. - The exit from the cave containing the troll hoard - Gandalf bestowing the sword, Sting upon Bilbo' - Radagast arriving, the Orcs and Wargs attacking and Radagast leading them off.
