Cave Hill
Hiking Highlight
Enjoy views up to the terrific Cavehill, a rocky elevation marked by basalt cliffs and caves. Look closley and see if you can spot 'Napolean's Nose', a tall cliff that resembles the profile of the great empire Napolean.

Creighton's Green Road Climb
Road Cycling Highlight (Segment)
Decent climb. Your reward is brilliant panoramic views of Belfast Lough below. Testy gradient From Holywood, but much easier drag up if approached from Newtownards / Scrabo Road.
