Wow is about all that can be said. It’s every but as beautiful as the best pictures you have seen of it. If you are anywhere near northern Ireland you must go. It’s free and they have tours that take you to it if toy dont have a car. We came from Belfast towards Portrush and it’s pretty much on the way to there and the causeway and all that. Just a slight detour is all it will take aside from taking your breath away that is.

I visited The Dark Hedges as part of the Paddywagon Day Tour from Dublin to Giant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland. I probably wouldn’t have known about this site otherwise since this is an estranged road in a middle of the country side — but was extremely glad we were able to make a stop here. I was even more excited when I found out the road was used as ‘the King’s Road’ on Game of Thrones. The beautiful road of beech tree trees are over 250 years old and planted by the Stuart family to impress visitors coming to their family home. It has since then become known as the Dark Hedges. We arrived around 11am on a March morning, although would love to visit the Dark Hedges during the twilight hours. The sun was peeking through the branches so it wasn’t as eerie as expected, but still has a magical feeling passing through the road. The road is supposedly haunted by a spectral ‘Grey Lady’ who appears at dusk among the trees. This is a great scenic drive, through old intertwined trees that line the roadway. A great spot that makes for some incredible photo opportunities.
