What to expect
You'll spend the morning and early afternoon driving through steep-sided valleys carved into County Antrim's plateau, stopping to walk short sections where the landscape demands it. Expect to climb modest hills and navigate uneven terrain—the glens reveal themselves best on foot, even briefly. Your guide shares stories rooted in the region's musical tradition and literary history rather than reciting facts. Winter light transforms the moorland dramatically; bring layers and waterproof kit. The journey includes significant driving time between glens, so rest periods are built in.
Good to know
Moderate fitness needed for glen walks; poor cardiovascular health not advised. Prams and strollers work on main paths. Lunch not provided—pack food or eat beforehand. Service animals welcome. Tour duration includes all travel between locations.
