Coastlines, Glens, Hills, and Historic Routes

From the basalt cliffs of the north coast to the valleys of the Glens of Antrim and the uplands of the Antrim Hills, County Antrim contains a diverse network of routes, landscapes, and places shaped by geology, the sea, and centuries of history. Trails such as the Causeway Coast Way, Ulster Way, and routes through the Glens of Antrim reveal many of these environments, while landscapes including the Giant's Causeway, Glens of Antrim, Causeway Coast, and Antrim Coast National Landscape showcase some of Northern Ireland's most distinctive natural environments.

Long-distance routes pass through coastal landscapes, upland terrain, woodland, river valleys, farmland, and historic settlements, linking places that have shaped the character of County Antrim for generations. Together, these routes and landscapes reveal the character of the county while providing opportunities to explore at a slower pace through self-guided travel and independent exploration.
