A dream in good weather

Only a solitary ruined gate tower remains - a standing testament to the turbulent times experienced at Dunseverick Castle. It's free to visit and open year-round, but take care exploring as there are sheer cliffs on three sides.

A very nice little place. The free car park is very central and spacious. The entrance height is stated as 1.95m. In our case, the height bar was set aside and therefore open.

A beautiful old ruin

The ruins of Dunseverick

The path to the organ pipes is easily manageable with a 2-hour stay. Good footwear is recommended. There are no benches, just a few stones to rest on. Up here you have a great view of the British mainland and the bay. Weatherproof clothing is necessary as there can always be changes in the weather.

The castle was used as a fort and observation post and was attacked by Viking raiders in 870AD. It was one of the five great royal highways, or slighe of ancient Ireland. The area today is famous for one of the best cliff path walks anywhere in Ireland from Dunseverick Harbour along the shore path, and passed the castle ruins, this will lead you to Hamiltons seat and Benbane Head, the most northern part of Northern Ireland's mainland.

The largest instrument there is is probably the organ. In smaller churches it can be as big as a piano and in larger ones as big as a two-story house. An organ is a large instrument operated by keys that produces its sounds through large pipes. This is why it is sometimes called a pipe organ. But this organ was created by nature, it's a shame it can't make any sounds, the sound would be supernatural.
