The unspoiled Causeway Coast of Antrim was one of Ireland's best-kept secrets until its glorious scenery and castles became familiar to fans of 'Game of Thrones'. The World Heritage Site of the Giant's Causeway shows intriguing geology and is best enjoyed on foot. The Causeway Coast Way offers 32 miles (51 km) of waymarked, easy-going walking with welcoming B&Bs and pubs at strategic intervals. It combines well with a trip to the enchanting offshore island of Rathlin; the book also covers how to walk the more challenging Moyle Way - a 26-mile inland route that links up at Ballycastle.
This guidebook contains all that a walker needs to plan and enjoy their holiday, including route maps for Causeway Coast and Moyle Ways (1:35,000); concise, up-to-date directions for both routes; geology and legend of the Giant's Causeway; background on habitats and wildlife; feature on Rathlin Island, with map and walks; contact details for accommodation and transport; over 80 glorious colour photos; and is in lightweight, rucksack-friendly format.
