Long Walks (Over 20 miles)

Developed in recent years, the Ways cover 360km or 225 miles and are fully signposted with the standard Waymarked Way Symbol. In addition routes have illustrated interpretive panels at key points, providing historical information. Guidebooks with maps for each Way are available at any Tourist Information Centre or the Countryside Access & Activities Network for Northern Ireland. Visit www.walkni.com


These walks can be challenging and are designed for the serious enthusiast. Most take several days to complete, so allow ample time to enjoy your walking break to the full. Friendly accommodation geared to walkers' needs is available along the Waymarked routes.
