Touring North of Wellington
Remember I promised to show some of the winding road into Wellington? Well, I think I can deliver on that promise with these photos from various lookouts along the route. Our journey today took us back out of Wellington to the north as far where they shot Rivendell. As we discovered, not much is left of the original set as with almost all of the places they shot the movie, everything has been dismantled. But you could see how and why they chose these particular sites.

ReplyDelete"'Rivendell"' said Frodo. 'Very good: I will go east, and I will make for Rivendell...' He spoke lightly, but his heart was moved suddenly with a desire to see the house of Elrond Halfelven, and breathe the air of that deep valley where many of the Fair Folk still dwelt in peace." (The Fellowship of the Ring, Book I, Chapter 3)
