CANTERBURY & CHRISTCHURCH TOURS

THE LORD OF THE RINGS TOUR
Discover where The Lord of the Rings was filmed by
visiting remote and beautiful Mount Potts high country
station, home of Mount Sunday. See how this mountain
was transformed into Edoras, the capital city of the
Rohan people in The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of this breathtaking
area with its sparkling clear lakes, glistening blue rivers
and fresh, crisp mountain air.
Enjoy an exciting 4WD adventure through several small
streams and right onto Edoras itself. Take a short guided
walk to stand on the summit of Edoras and enjoy as
Eowyn did, the breathtaking 360 degree views.
Passionate guides will have you laughing and learning
things you didn’t know, and you’ll be given access to
behind the scenes photos of Edoras under construction
