The Elephant Rocks 5 km south of Duntroon in the north of the Otago region in New Zealand are a group of weathered limestone cliffs. The group has a radius of about 200 m and is located in a pasture on a slight slope. The rounded, weathered stones are 1 - 10 meters in diameter and don't really look like elephants. You are on a private sheep farm, but access is permitted from a parking lane on Island Cliff-Duntroon Road.

At Elephant Rocks, scenes were filmed in Aslan's camp in 2005 for the first film in The Chronicles of Narnia .
