Slemish Mountain is the remnant of an extinct volcano near Ballymena on the Antrim Coast of Northern Ireland. Its summit rises to 437m, offering hikers beautiful views of the surrounding area and even the Scottish coast. Legend says that St. Patrick found God here after being enslaved as a youth and forced to herd sheep in the area. After escaping, he later returned to the area as a priest to convert his old master. Therefore, hundreds of people hike the 1.5km circular trail to the summit, especially on St. Patrick's Day (March 17). The 180m climb is rocky and steep and can be dangerous, especially in bad weather, so all hikers should be equipped for the rapidly changing weather conditions.

Beautiful to look at, the river is more than fascinating

The Queen of the Antrim Glens. Part of the Glenariff Glen has been designated as a National Nature Reserve. The timber boardwalk that winds through the glen and alongside the river gorge was first built about 100 years ago and has been carefully reconstructed to provide one of several spectacular walks. These include Rainbow Trail, Scenic Trail, Viewpoint Trail, and Waterfall Walk Trail...Yes there's a lovely Waterfall.

With foresight

You can see that it hasn't rained in 4 weeks

The vantage point is located directly at the large car park. From here also the start of the "Waterfall Trail"

Good road surface through the forest - nice views on each side. Be warned, whichever way you come from you'll be facing a climb!
