The beauty and variety of our landscape, the compact distances and ever-changing vistas, and our mild climate, make Northern Ireland brilliant to explore on foot. And the good news for those who like to travel this way is that the region offers a huge variety of walks, all packed into a relatively small area. One day you could be looking out on the restless Atlantic crashing on the rocks of the Giant's Causeway, then taking a stroll in peaceful woodland, then standing on a summitin the Mourne Mountains with the patchwork fields of County Down far below.

Northern Ireland has it all, forests, boglands, clifftop walks, mountain trails, country parks and beachfront dunes. So if you're a serious rambler or just like to stretch the legs and enjoy the view, you're in the right place...
