Giantâ??s Causeway Visitor Centre in Portrush, County Antrim, United Kingdom | Nature Reserve

The Giantâ??s Causeway is a World Heritage site National Nature Reserve and Northern Irelandâ??s premier tourist attraction. The site and 15 mile of footpaths along the Causeway Coastline are owned and maintained by the National Trust who work in close co-operation with Moyle District Council who manage the Visitor Centre and Car Park Facilities.
Moyle District Councilâ??s Causeway Visitor Centre is open daily all year round and located on the cliff top 1 km from the site. The Centre is the ideal starting point for walks along the coastal and cliff top paths and provides an excellent range of visitor services. A 12-minute audio-visual presentation, with commentary available in 5 European languages, enables visitors to further explore the origins of the Giantâ??s Causeway through local folklore and scientific theory and highlights the many other attractions of the Causeway Coast and Glens of Antrim area.
The Giant's Causeway (295445), 12 km. E. of Portrush and 15km. W. of Ballycastle, is Northern Ireland's most famous sight. The Causeway proper is only part of its attraction. The 6 km of sheer cliffs, rising to over 90 m. and forming a series of bays, are spectacular. The National Trust has provided a coastal path about 8 km. long from the entrance to the Causeway to beyond Dunseverick, near Whitepark Bay. A small bus takes visitors down to the Grand Causeway.
