Falls of Glenariff

Falls of Glenariff

The Nine Glens of Antrim radiate outwards towards the Irish coast from the mountainous heartland of the county, cut through the black basalt by rivers and further gouged by ancient glaciers.

Of the nine Glens of Antrim "Glenariff" is referred to as the 'Queen of the Glens'. The small village of Waterfoot lies at the mouth of the Glen. The upper part of the glen contains some excellent walks through the forest and down alongside the river as it flows over several waterfalls.
