Northern Ireland, UK

Northern Ireland has a wealth of spectacular scenery, from the dramatic mountain ranges of the Mournes and the Sperrins to the deep gorges of the Glens of Antrim.

In the Northeast is the Causeway coast, where the amazing basalt columns of Giant's Causeway and the cliff top ruin of Dunluce Castle are situated. The coast is peppered with peaceful, sandy beaches, soaring cliff faces, pretty hamlets, and seaside resorts such as Portrush and Portballintrae, and the rural seaside town of Ballycastle. Further south is Belfast, Northern Ireland's capital and a lively city port of culture and entertainment.

The wild Sperrin mountains of the Northwest are Northern Ireland's largest mountain range and are full of forests, valleys and moors, while further north is the spectacular walled city of Londonderry - or Derry - which has a thriving culture and arts scene as well as a fascinating history, while the lakelands of the Southwest are home to the historic Enniskillen Castle, and the serene waterways of Lough Erne, which have an abundance of secluded bays, wildlife and birdlife. The Shannon-Erne waterway has many islands steeped in ancient history, with Celtic idols, pagan carvings and ruined churches and abbeys scattered among them.
