Everything We Know About 'Twilight' Filming Locations

The "Twilight" saga, with its moody forests, misty coastlines and small-town charm, captivated audiences worldwide and turned its filming locations into must-visit destinations for fans.

While the story is set in the rainy town of Forks, Washington, much of the cinematic magic was brought to life in various spots across Oregon and British Columbia.

Whether you're a die-hard Twihard or a curious traveler, exploring these sites provides a unique glimpse into the complicated love story of Bella and Edward.

Approximately 26 miles east of Salem, Oregon, Silver Falls State Park served as a key filming location for "Twilight." The park's lush, moss-covered forests provided the backdrop for the film's opening scene.

The iconic treetop scene, where Edward reveals his vampire abilities to Bella, was also filmed in the area. Today, fans can visit Silver Falls State Park to experience the enchanting landscapes that brought these memorable scenes to life.

Indian Beach, nestled within Oregon's Ecola State Park near Cannon Beach, served as the stand-in for La Push Beach in "Twilight."

This picturesque location is where Bella and her friends gather for a day of surfing, and where Jacob shares the Quileute legends about the "cold ones," subtly revealing Edward's true nature.

Kalama High School in Washington and Madison High School in Oregon were the high school settings for "Twilight." These locations came together to create Forks High on-screen.

At the start of the film, Bella is seen in the car with her dad as they cross a bridge. In real life, this structure is the border between Washington and Oregon. 

St. Helens, Oregon is the quiet town where The Swan House is located. The Cullen House is located in Portland, Oregon, just 40 minutes away.

The café scenes are small but significant, showing Bella adapting to her new life in Forks. Located in Damascus, Oregon, it's considered one of the most popular "Twilight" filming locations.

Prom scenes were captured at The Viewpoint Inn which is located about a 33-minute drive from the city center in Portland. Perched with scenic views of the Columbia River Gorge, it provides a picturesque, fairy-tale-like backdrop.
