Explorer Tom Slemish is famous as the place where St Patrick minded his sheep, a significant peak in County Antrim history.
Mid HillMountain / peak · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Mid Hill features forestry near Martinstown in County Antrim, a green spot for those who enjoy woodland walks.
CarncormickMountain / peak · 3.7 miExplorer Tom Carncormick hosts a trig point with Cargan looming behind it, situated just three kilometres from Martinstown in the county.
Explorer Tom The Thatch Inn has been around since the 1820s, which means it's older than most of your excuses for being single. Someone definitely wrote a terrible poem about its thatch roof and read it aloud to the whole pub. Find the wonkiest bit and send it straight to your group chat.
Glenarm ForestForest · 6.0 miExplorer Tom In Glenarm Forest, old walls are being reclaimed by nature, and the north side seems alive with pheasants flying around us.
Cranny FallsWaterfall · 6.1 miExplorer Tom Cranny Falls offers a tranquil, cool shady spot reached by an easy walk along the old railway line in County Antrim.
The MountViewpoint · 6.4 miExplorer Tom Walk round and round the continuous grassy ramp at The Mount to reach the top, just like a gentle spiral staircase.
Explorer Tom The Walled Garden at Glenarm Castle must be an exclusive treasure trove of exotic plants behind historic stone walls.
Millennium MilepostVisitor information · 6.6 miExplorer Tom Standing on the Antrim coast road, this Sustrans Millennium Milepost on route 93 points towards Waterfoot and Glenarm.
Explorer Tom Glenarm Castle is Grade A and built in the 1820s, surviving storms it definitely bragged about to other rocks. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted because it’s just a fancy house.
Castle (site of) in Town Parks (glenarm)Castle (site of) · 6.6 miExplorer Tom Castle in Town Parks is playing hide-and-seek with me. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass! It's a handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination, or at least pretend you did.
Explorer Tom St Patrick's Graveyard and Former Friary; this dual history in County Antrim probably makes for some incredibly rich architectural stories.
