 Northern Ireland is a land
of blue mountains and deep forests, lakes, windswept moors and
white Atlantic sands.The country's turbulent past has helped
shape the landscape. Distinctive field patterns are especially
striking, and so are ruined castles. Built from the 12th century
onwards, and once symbols of both oppression and reassurance,
they are now among Ulster's finest architectural treasures. Small
towns are hidden away in the countryside and there are fishing
villages along the shores. The scenic beauty and the variety
of the landscape make Northern Ireland a great place to
explore on foot. The wide scatter of villages and small towns
across the country give access to forest trails, clifftop paths,
mountain hikes and pleasant strolls in country parks. Going to the Republic of Ireland?. Towns listed on this page may be outside
