Walking Dead Filming Locations – Atlanta Map & Tour

If we've learned anything from 4 seasons of AMC's The Walking Dead, it's that Rick makes debatable decisions, the writers aren't afraid to kill off popular characters, and if Daryl and Michonne ever hooked up, they'd have the most badass kid on the post-apocalyptic playground. And, since the show's shot mostly on location in Georgia (rather than on a Hollywood lot) it's remarkably easy to hop in a car and visit the real-life locations.

To help you do just that, we used ber-fan sites like Walkingdeadlocations and Walking Dead Wiki to map out an easy-to-follow, DIY road trip around Atlanta, complete with behind-the-scenes dirt on 13 locations. Which hospital did Rick wake up in? How far's Woodbury from the prison? Is the CDC really rigged to explode? It's all here. Now, let's go hunt some walkers.

Total distance:132.5mi Estimated driving time: 3 hours, 12 minutes. As it is Atlanta, be sure to build in PLENTY of time to idle in traffic -- or, like, two extra days, if there are flurries in the forecast. Start and finish: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport:6000 N Terminal Pkwy, Atlanta, GA 30320

Pit stop: On the drive from Rick's House to the bridge, you're going to pass Illegal Food on Edgewood Ave -- they flip one of the ATL's best burgers.

Pit stop: As you love both BBQ and sexy waitresses wearing Daisy Dukes, best stop off for some ribs and brisket at Hottie Hawg's Smokin' BBQ -- it's less than a mile down the road.

Random TWD question: Does Lori push Rick away after he reveals he killed Shane because: a) she's horrified that he could kill his best friend, even though she instigated it; b) she was upset that Carl was the one that put Shane down; c) she loved Shane more than Rick all along? We think it's C -- what's your take?

Random TWD question: In the comic, it's actually Carl who kills Shane, after witnessing him draw a gun on Rick during an argument. That's a better way for Shane to die, right?

Final pit stop: After a casual stroll up Main Street, speculate on what's going to happen in tomorrow night's mid-season return over a slice from Matt's Smalltown Pizzaor cup of java from the Senoia Coffee & Cafe.

Return to the airport: 32.3mi (43min)
