However, it is also a show recognised for its magnificent visuals, with the vast array of shooting locations helping to transport viewers to the fictional Continent where characters such as Geralt, Ciri and Yennefer<\/a> reside.<\/p>\n But just where has the series been shot in the past, and what locations should fans expect to see on screen in the highly anticipated third season?<\/p>\n Read on for everything you need to know about where The Witcher is filmed?<\/p>\n The show\u2019s first season was shot predominantly in Hungary<\/a>, with the production utilising the Mafilm Studios near\u00a0Budapest and the Origo Studios on that city\u2019s outskirts.<\/p>\n Fort Monostor and a nearby forest were also used for exterior scenes, as were the hills of Cs\u00e1kber\u00e9ny village, the Skanzen Village Museum and the Kiscelli Museum in\u00a0\u00d3buda.<\/p>\n However, Hungary wasn\u2019t the only stop on what was a particularly global tour for the show\u2019s first season. Scenes were also shot in Austria at Burg Kreuzenstein and at a castle near Leobendorf, as well as a ruined medieval castle in Poland, called Ogrodzieniec.<\/p>\n Meanwhile the Canary Islands were a particular favourite location for filming, with Gran Canaria, La Palma and La Gomera all used for filming. Specific locations on Gran Canaria included the Barranco de Fataga area and the Natural Dune Reserve of Maspalomas, while La Palma\u2019s Garaf\u00eda became Aretuza for the series.<\/p>\n Because of travel restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the entirity of season 2 was filmed at locations around the UK, including at Arborfield Studios<\/a> in London.<\/p>\n Outside of London the show also shot on location in the Lake District<\/a>, Coldharbour Wood in Chichester, Bourne Wood in Farnham, Deepcut Surrey, Low Force Waterfall in Teesdale, the Isle of Skye and numerous locations around Yorkshire.<\/p>\n Specific locations used around Yorkshire included the Yorkshire Dales, Plumpton Rocks, Fountains Abbey and Frensham Ponds.<\/p>\n Filming started on season 3 back in March, with a photo shared from the set in Laghi di Fusine, an icy lake in northern Italy.<\/p>\n Since then filming has also reportedly taken place<\/a> at Predjama castle in Slovenia, as well as in Croatia, Wales and Morocco, with the series resuming its globe-trotting scope when it comes to filming locations.<\/p> The series also returned to the UK to shoot scenes at Longcross Studios and in the surrounding area of Surrey, including at Guildford Cathedral.<\/p>\n The Witcher seasons 1 and 2 are on Netflix.
