Most of Netflix’s Lost in Space (2018–2021) was filmed in British Columbia, Canada , especially around Vancouver and Squamish, with additional key location work in Iceland for some of the more alien-looking landscapes.

Main Filming Regions

  • The production based itself largely in and around Vancouver in British Columbia, using real forests, mountains, and quarries to stand in for alien planets.
  • Later seasons added striking Icelandic locations, whose waterfalls, black-sand coasts, and dramatic cliffs helped sell the idea of distant, uncharted worlds.

Notable British Columbia Spots

  • Forest and canyon scenes were shot in places like Lynn Canyon Park, Robert Burnaby Park, Greenwood Park, and the Seymour watershed in and around North Vancouver and Burnaby.
  • Rocky and desert-like exteriors came from areas near Squamish, Murrin Provincial Park at Britannia Beach, Brohm Ridge, and ranch and field locations around Cache Creek and Kamloops.

Iceland Locations

  • For season 2, the crew traveled to Iceland, using areas such as Skógafoss and Dyrhólaey, as well as other South Iceland landscapes, to create dramatic off-world vistas.
  • These sites gave the show its sweeping waterfalls and stark volcanic terrain that differ noticeably from the green forests of British Columbia.
