Ohakune was used to portray the Ithilien Camp in the Lord of the Rings movies.

While travelling through Ithilien, Frodo, Sam and Gollum stop and make camp to rest and eat. While there, Sam and Gollum argue over cooking and to prepare rabbits. Frodo hears something and slips away. Sam notices and goes to find Frodo. Just as he does so, they see a force of Haradrim with Oliphaunts making for Mordor.
