Carrick-a-Rede Coastal Walk, Carrick-a-Rede

Trace the coastline over windswept grasslands & winding rocky paths to Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. For those brave enough to cross the bridge, there's a birds-eye view of clear green water & ancient caverns below. Gravel & uneven tracks, unfenced cliffs.

Covering just 2.6 km, this is a gentle outing perfect for families or beginners. Allow roughly 35 minutes.

This linear trail moves from one end to the other without looping back. A return journey by transport — or retracing the path — is needed to get back to the start.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
