The series "Yellowstone" was almost entirely filmed in Montana, USA. Moreover, most of the filming took place on one ranch, the roads around it, and a small town. But there are separate scenes in offices and Texas, exhibitions and urban locations were filmed in the states of Utah, Texas, Arizona in many cities. There is also no geographical correspondence; many offices and buildings shown as nearby in the film are actually in different cities, and the Dutton ranch itself, which according to the plot neighbors Yellowstone National Park, is actually quite far away.

Filming Locations:

Dutton Ranch

In the Movie

The scene where we are shown the Dutton ranch, including all scenes with animal pens, fields, the house, barns, and the hired hands' quarters. Also all aerial scenes over the territory, but excluding park and mountain scenes—those were usually filmed elsewhere.

In Reality

The scene was filmed at the Chief Joseph Ranch—this is not a set, but a real working ranch. The family raises cows, horses, and does roughly the same as the series characters, just without banditry, shootouts, etc. The ranch was built by settlers in 1880. It was originally known as the Shelton Ranch. Now it also operates in agritourism, so you can book a spot and visit it.

Dutton House

In the Movie

The scene where we are shown the main house where the Dutton family lives, including all scenes in the living room, bedrooms, dining room, kitchen, as well as exterior shots of the house and grounds.

In Reality

The scene was filmed in the main house at Chief Joseph Ranch—this is the real home of the family that owns the ranch and lives there permanently. This house is accessible to tourists; you can book a 3-day stay when filming of the series and its spin-offs is not taking place.
