The Full Monty:
Hardy hikers can spend a couple of hours exploring the trail that
runs along a five-mile section of the Causeway Coast (yellow dashed line on your map).
However, occasional rock falls and slides can close this route (ask first at Portrush TI, or
call ahead to visitors center). A £1 hiking guide, sold at the TI, points out the highlights
named by 18th-century guides (Camel's Back, Giant's Eye, and so on).
A good plan is to take the Causeway Rambler bus or a taxi from Portrush to the meager
ruins of Dunseverick Castle (east of Giant's Causeway on B-146). Get off there and hike
west, following the cliff-hugging contours of Benbane Head back to the visitors center.
Then travel back to Portrush by taxi or Rambler bus (check bus schedules ahead of time at
Portrush TI or online at

)
