BELFAST

Cavehill Caves

Co Antrim

Cave Face

A fifteen minute walk through a woodland terrain from the Zoo car park leads you to the cave cliff face (photo). The tracks to the left of the face continue on up past the left side of the nose peak (bottom photo) to the summit.  The caves are situated under the red "x's" that I have added to the photo.

Lower Cave

Close-up of the bottom cave which off course  the  easiest of the three caves to access.

Nose peak

From where this photo was taken (the bottom cave) the hardest part of the track begins, the slope to the summit is not really steep but loose gravel and boulders make it difficult to keep good foot grip.  The red "X" is where the journey ends at the summit.
