The movie Twilight was primarily filmed in Oregon and Washington, despite the story being set in Forks, Washington. Key filming locations include:
- Oregon: Many scenes were shot around Portland and nearby areas such as Vernonia, Silver Falls State Park (where the baseball game scene was filmed), Multnomah Falls, and Ecola State Park (Indian Beach, used as La Push Beach). The View Point Inn in Corbett, Oregon, was the site of the prom scene
- Washington: Some scenes, including those at Kalama High School (standing in for Forks High School), were filmed in Washington state, but not in the actual town of Forks. The filmmakers chose Oregon for its scenery and practical reasons
- California: The scenes set in Arizona were actually filmed near Santa Clarita, California
- British Columbia, Canada: Later films in the saga were shot around Vancouver and other locations in British Columbia, but the first Twilight film was mainly Oregon and Washington-based
In summary, although the story is set in Forks, Washington, the majority of Twilight was filmed in Oregon, with some scenes in Washington and California. Iconic natural locations like Silver Falls State Park and Multnomah Falls in Oregon feature prominently in the film
