Itinerary
Carrickfergus Castle

You will have the chance to enjoy this magnificent castle with a brief walk around the building and its adjoining harbour, then a short visit inside the completely intact Courtyard.Andrew Jackson Centre
50 minsAdmission Ticket FreeTucked away behind the busy streets of the A2 highway leaving Carrickfergus is the celebrated Andrew Jackson Centre, celebrating the close links between County Antrim and the United States of America, through the story of Andrew Jackson, whose parents and two brothers left their thatched cottage homestead for the New World in the 1700s. Surprise yourself at the foundation of the UN Rangers in June 1942 in the small museum dedicated to the story of the US Army Elite Forces.Glenarm Castle
45 minsAdmission Ticket FreeThe first of the nine Glens of Antrim is the beautifully desolate and unique Glenarm with its rugged valleys, pastures, dry-stone walls and of course, the many thousands of our woolly friends who call this home year-round. GLENARM CASTLE is unique in that it is the only one in Northern Ireland continuously inhabited by the same family since its construction in 1659.Carnlough Harbour
25 minsAdmission Ticket FreeThis enchanting seaside town has a wonderful limestone harbour and the remains of two limestone bridges that once carried the world's first narrow gauge industrial railroad. Unique stories are hidden around every corner and the harbour featured too in the Game of Thrones saga, much of which was filmed in the Glens from 2009 to 2019.Glenariff Forest Park
20 minsAdmission Ticket FreeBy far the most amazing of the Glens, it has earned the title of Queen of the Glens for its majesty and magnificence. Cited often by author C S Lewis (Belfast born and bred) as one of the inspirations for his Chronicles of Narnia, you will be swept away be the sheer scale of mother nature and beauty of the many waterfalls that fall from is imposing clifftops.Cushendall
