Northern Ireland is an ideal and undemanding destination for all travelers who do not look for extreme heat during their travels. The country is diverse in terms of activities and interesting places to visit. The colors of your camera will not be enough for you, on bright emerald pastures, azure skies reflected on the sea surface, and when the sun comes out after the shower, there is no shortage of rainbows.

Day 1 The capital

Belfast

The first day after arrival, most likely to Belfast as the capital with an international airport, I recommend using the location and walking around the city.

Day 2

Belfast area

Belfast is not a big city, so I think one day is enough to explore it. Nevertheless, there is plenty to discover in its surroundings, so one more day of sleeping in Belfast is definitely worth it. The advantage is an extra night to soak up the local pub culture in countless bars.

Day 3 of the Morne Mountains

Mountains and trek

After two days in the city and its surroundings, you can drive to unwind in the nature to the one hour distant Morne mountains, where there are countless routes for treks and ascents.

4. the Causaway coustal route

Highlight Northern Ireland

After 3 days on the island, you will be quite accustomed to local customs and the vagaries of the weather that you can dare to the biggest attraction, because of which tourists and lovers of the Game of Thrones series come here. On the way north, it pays to take a short drive to Dark Hedges. The Causaway coustal route runs along the north coast and offers many stops that you should not miss. We will start at its eastern end and move west towards Londonderry.

Day 5 of the Causaway coustal route

From the giant sidewalk further west

Because the whole road is 190 km long, it is not possible to drive it in one day and still enjoy all the attractions, viewpoints and ruins along the way. I recommend dividing the trip along the north coast into 2 to 3 days, depending on the speed of viewing.
