While you can't visit the actual Virgin River featured in the popular Netflix series, you can visit the real-life locations that inspired the show! The series is filmed in British Columbia, Canada, specifically in the Hope and Vancouver areas.
Here are some of the filming locations you can visit:
- The "Virgin River" town: Most of the exterior shots of the fictional town were filmed in Hope, BC, which is a charming small town with a rich history. You can explore its downtown area, visit its local shops, and enjoy the beautiful scenery.
- The "Virgin River" bridge: The iconic bridge seen in the show is located in Hope as well. You can take a walk across it and enjoy the panoramic views of the Fraser River.
- The "Virgin River" cabin: The cabin where Mel lives in the series is actually located in Vancouver, and you can get a glimpse of its exterior during a guided tour.
