## Causeway Coast Way

The Causeway Coast Way traces around 50 km of Northern Ireland's wild Atlantic edge from Portstewart to Ballycastle, past white sand beaches, dramatic basalt cliffs and the UNESCO listed Giant's Causeway. Along the route you also pass Dunluce Castle and the swaying Carrick a Rede rope bridge.

Best walked April to October on clear days when cliff paths are dry; check tide times for beach sections and book Carrick a Rede rope bridge tickets online before turning up.
