Moyle Way
The Moyle Way runs for 27 miles through the heart of the world-famous Glens of Antrim, taking the walker through a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a land of geology, wildlife, history and folklore. From its start on the coast at Ballycastle, the route winds past ancient monuments, across rivers and high mountain tops culminating among the woodland waterfalls of Glenariff Forest Park before reaching the coastal village of Waterfoot.

Accommodation and Useful Facilities
Refreshments are available at the start and finish of the route in Ballycastle and Waterfoot. However this is a long route with no refreshment stops along the way – walkers should carry provisions accordingly. There is a wide range of accommodation available at the start in Ballycastle but only a campsite near the finish in Glenariff Forest Park. There is no accommodation along this section of the route so walkers should arrange collection for accommodation off-route in Cushendall and Cushendun.
