Grjótagjá Cave
This cave in Iceland was used in several infamous Game of Thrones scenes, with John Snow and Ygritte. Let’s just say that the stone cave wasn’t the only thing that was rock hard in these scenes 😉

Höfðabrekka
where characters like Jon Snow and his brothers from the Night's Watch or Bran Stark and his companions struggle with the landscape and the creatures within. Filming this area is just as difficult as being a character within it as film crews only have a two hour gap everyday in which the landscape is not too rainy or snowy.
