Back to the Future Part III filming locations
Film locations: California; Arizona
Back to the Future Part III fliming location: Marty goes back to the Wild West: Monument Valley, Arizona
The final part of the trilogy sends Marty McFly (Fox) zooming back to the Wild West, and what location could be more iconic than Monument Valley, Arizona?
Seen in such classic John Ford movies as Stagecoach, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon and The Searchers, this is still the most breathtaking, Western backdrop.
Back to the Future Part III filming location: Sierra Railroad, Jamestown, California
Another classic location was used for the railroad scenes, which filmed on the Sierra Railroad between Jamestown and Sonora – a stretch of track also seen in films such as Bad Day at Black Rock and High Noon. It’s on Route 108 east of Stockton, California. The 1885 version of the ‘Mill Valley’ square was reconstructed up here.
Once again, Doc Emmett’s place is the Gamble House, 4 Westmoreland Place in Pasadena, as inthe original Back to the Future, though this time the interiors were on a Universal soundstage.
