A method of forming a tungsten film, capable of restricting voids and volcanoes as large as adversely affecting characteristics despite the small diameter of a buried hole, and providing good burying characteristics. When forming a tungsten film on the surface of an object of treating (W) in a vacuumizing-enabled treating vessel (22), a reduction gas supplying process 70 and a tungsten gas supplying process 72 for supplying a tungsten-containing gas are alternately repeated with a purge process 74, for supplying an inert gas while vacuumizing, intervened therebetween to thereby form an initial tungsten film 76. Therefore, an initial tungsten film can be formed as a nucleation layer high in film thickness uniformity; and, accordingly, when main tungsten films are subsequently deposited, it is possible to restrict voids and volcanoes as large as adversely affecting characteristics despite the small diameter of a buried hole, and provide good burying characteristics.
