Thankfully however, you don&#8217;t have to travel to a galaxy far, far away to immerse yourself in the world of the force. There are Star Wars filming locations all over the world you can visit! Here are a few from around Europe and Africa, plus a few hostel suggestions for when you visit&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"article\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Skellig Michael, Ireland<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7061 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/iZz1_klZD.jpg\" alt=\"Star Wars Filming Locations - Skellig Michael, Ireland\" width=\"535\" height=\"357\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The beautiful green island off the coast of Ireland are definitely out of this world. It was once home to a Christian monastery, but has been unoccupied since the twelfth century. The island is remote, peaceful, and the ruins of the monastery is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The closest hostel, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hosteldetails.php\/Skellig-Hostel-and-Lodge\/Ballinskelligs\/6915\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"post links\">The Skellig Lodge<\/a> is simply phenomenal. With a guest rating of 10\/10 for security, staff and cleanliness, so you\u2019re definitely in good hands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7062 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/2_MOTrogF.jpg\" alt=\"2_MOTrogF\" width=\"535\" height=\"401\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The hostel overlooks the beautiful Ballinskelligs Bay and is just five minutes walking distance from the beach.

If you\u2019re feeling adventurous you\u2019ll have all the hiking, swimming, diving, surfing, and kayaking that you could ever want right at your fingertips. Of course there are regular boat trips to Skellig Michael, so you\u2019ll have plenty of opportunities to unleash your inner Star Wars geek!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>M\u00fdvatn Lake and Krafla volcano, Iceland<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7069 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/3_dFPobv6.jpg\" alt=\"Star Wars Filming Locations - M\u00fdvatn Lake and Krafla Volcano, Iceland\" width=\"535\" height=\"397\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Continuing our theme of beautiful remote locations, next up is M\u00fdvatn Lake in Iceland. Like most of the other locations used in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the area is visually stunning, wonderfully serene and full of peaceful wildlife. Krafla is a volcano in the M\u00fdvatn, and provides quite the background for your Instagram pics!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">One of the best hostels in Iceland is the awesome <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hosteldetails.php\/Akureyri-Backpackers\/Akureyri\/55177\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"post links\">Akureyri Backpackers<\/a>. The amazing staff and fantastic location (9.5 guest rating) will make sure you get out to spend some time in tranquil Icelandic nature.

While it is not currently being used for combat purposes, it\u2019s setting in the rolling English hills makes it a striking contrast to the visuals provided by Icelandic volcanoes and remote Irish islands. It is now used as public parkland.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7074 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/6_aRaWJAP.jpg\" alt=\"6_aRaWJAP\" width=\"535\" height=\"401\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Nearby is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hosteldetails.php\/Hillingdon-Prince\/Reading\/60337\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"post links\">Hillingdon Prince<\/a>, which may be a little pricier than a bare bones hostel, but the quality of facilities and location more than make up for the slight increase in price. Free Wi-Fi of course, a gym and daily breakfasts mean you\u2019ll be well taken care of. The rooms even come with microwaves and fridges!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Forest of Dean<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7075 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/7_uB5Chkl.jpg\" alt=\"Star Wars Filming Locations - Forest of Dean\" width=\"535\" height=\"356\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Another lusciously green British location, Forest of Dean makes the perfect setting for some new lightsabre duels. The region is the second largest crown forest in England, and has been a historic site in the countryside since the Romans walked on British soil.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7076 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/9_J2x1WKn.jpg\" alt=\"9_J2x1WKn\" width=\"535\" height=\"401\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hosteldetails.php\/Little-Treaddow-Farmhouse-B-and-B\/Hereford\/88189\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"post links\">Little Treaddow Farmhouse B&amp;B<\/a> is a quaint, four hundred year old building close by that has been modernised for your accommodation needs.

The Lake District is named for good reason, with 21 large lakes, and plenty of peaks, forest and open skies to help clear your mind of stress. The area is actually a National Park, and as one of the most visited spots in all of the country (for good reason) has inspired countless works of art and poetry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7078 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/11_7UQ20WE.jpg\" alt=\"Star Wars Filming Locations - Lake District\" width=\"535\" height=\"287\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostelworld.com\/hosteldetails.php\/YHA-Ambleside\/Lake-District\/6968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"post links\">YHA Ambleside<\/a> hostel is located right in the heart of the Lake District, and has recently been refurbished.
