Giants & Thrones
Northern Ireland’s Road Trip of Myth and Magic
Dear Ireland,
You are carved from myth and shaped by memory. In your windswept glens and silent castles, we find the echoes of stories too big for books and too old for maps. Each stone holds a whisper, each road a rumour. You don’t just offer views—you offer belonging. For those of us who dream from afar, your cliffs call louder than any skyline. We miss you, even if we’ve never met you.

The Causeway consists of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, formed as a result of volcanic activity around 50-60 million years ago. The columns are mostly hexagonal in shape and vary in height, creating a unique and breathtaking landscape.
