Hobbiton Movie Set

Hobbiton Movie Set is the only fully preserved Lord of the Rings film set open to the public, covering 1,250 acres near Matamata with 44 Hobbit holes. Guided tours reveal exact filming locations used in both trilogies, with 50% of visitors coming from Australia alone. The set's authenticity is unmatched, as it is the largest movie set in New Zealand still operational for tours year-round.
