    All information provided on OutmoreNI.com and WalkNI.com is intended as a guide only and should be used alongside your own experience, awareness, and careful decision-making.

    Physically demanding, narrow trails with steep climbs and descents over short and long distances. Expect the surface to be uneven and changeable throughout with natural surfaces like grass, exposed rock and trodden earth. The surface may change suddenly and be unstable in places. There will be slippery sections when wet and large, frequent obstacles like exposed roots, large boulders, overgrown sections, uneven stiles and long stretches of uneven steps.

    Outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear are recommended.
