On the way to Belfast - Glenariff Forest Park and the Dark Hedges

We left the Causeway Coast area and started our drive to Belfast. We made a short stop at Glenarifff for a walk and some lunch. We had a more difficult walk planned for the afternoon so we just took it easy in the morning. There was hardly anyone around and we didn't see anyone else at all on the trail. 



Next stop was the "Dark Hedges" made famous as the King's Road on the TV series Game of Thrones. It's just a tree-lined road but I can see how it would definitely be scary/moody with the right conditions like fog or darkness.


Update: a severe winter storm knocked down several of the trees along the road so it doesn't look like this anymore.
