“Come and see why this stunning farm location in the Mangaotaki Valley near Piopio was chosen by Sir Peter Jackson as a film location for "The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey".”

Visit New Zealand's stunning Denize Bluffs farm and tour where Sir Peter Jackson, director of Lord of the Rings Trilogy, filmed the most location screen time for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

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"!

Join our personally guided tour and see where these scenes were filmed:

- 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.

Have your photo taken standing in the exact spot where Bilbo received his magical sword, "Sting", from Gandalf.
