Blackhead Path

1. Blackhead Path

This lovely coastal path takes you on a bracing walk past the coves and sea caves on this rocky stretch of Belfast Lough’s shoreline. There’s a fairly steep climb up steps to Black Head Lighthouse, with stunning views across the Irish Sea. There are many interesting wildlife habitats along the way and the Lough itself is classified as an Area of Special Scientific Interest.
