Step Into a Fairytale: Exploring Hobbiton in New Zealand

#earthdayjourney Hidden in the rolling green hills of Matamata, Hobbiton is more than just a movie set—it’s a portal to Middle-earth. Whether you're a die-hard Lord of the Rings fan or simply love whimsical landscapes, this charming village of round doors, lush gardens, and thatched-roof cottages is pure magic. A guided tour takes you through the iconic Hobbit Holes, past the famous Party Tree, and ends with a drink at the cosy Green Dragon Inn. But beyond the fantasy, Hobbiton also embraces sustainability—using locally sourced materials, maintaining the land’s natural beauty, and running eco-conscious operations to preserve this enchanting place for future generations. If you’ve ever dreamed of stepping into a storybook world, Hobbiton is a must-visit. Would you walk the paths of the Shire? #travel #newzealand #sustainability #Hobbiton
