Description

Start your adventure with pickup directly from your accommodation or a central Belfast location. Your local guide, Corey, will welcome you and drive you in a comfortable white Nissan minivan to the base of Cave Hill — one of the city’s most iconic natural landmarks. This is a private experience for your group only. No strangers, no crowds — just your own Belfast local, sharing stories, laughs, and tailoring the pace to you. The climb to the summit takes around one hour at a steady, moderate pace, with plenty of stops to enjoy the scenery and hear about Belfast’s history. Along the way, you’ll uncover local legends, cultural insights, and stories that bring the city’s character to life. At the top, you’ll be rewarded with something few visitors ever experience: Belfast from above. From the summit, you can see the entire city stretched out beneath you — its neighbourhoods, harbour, and skyline laid out in one sweeping view. It’s a perspective that changes how you see Belfast, giving you a sense of its scale, history, and connection to the surrounding land. Now, Belfast weather can be unpredictable. While you’re not always guaranteed a golden sunrise or a crystal-clear afternoon, you are guaranteed unforgettable views of the city from above. And when the skies open up, the panoramas are spectacular: The Mourne Mountains, the highest in Northern Ireland, rising in the distance. The sparkling waters of Belfast Lough. And even Scotland across the Irish Sea. Choose your perfect moment: Sunrise Hike Start the day with magic — watching Belfast awaken in golden light, often with the summit all to yourself. ☀️ Afternoon Hike A relaxed midday climb, perfect for soaking in the daylight views, capturing photos, and appreciating the city from a whole new angle. Once you’ve taken in the views, had your photos, and enjoyed the fresh hilltop air, we’ll descend at an easy pace before your return drive back to your pickup point. This is more than just a hike — it’s a 2.5–3 hour private adventure that blends nature, storytelling, and a perspective of Belfast few ever get to see. Whether under dramatic skies or clear blue horizons, it’s a true bucket-list experience: Belfast, from above.
