Itinerary description
This is a beautiful walk, mostly on trail, along a rugged coast to the Giant's Causeway, an extremely popular tourist attraction. There were plenty of people there even on a weekday in mid-September. Most people visit by driving to the Visitor Center, where they pay 10 GBP/person to park and enter the center. But visiting the Giant's Causeway itself costs nothing, if you walk there on the Causeway Coast Way. The trail is generally well-constructed, but there were many puddles after a hard rain. It winds along the tops of cliffs, but for the most part it's not very precipitous.

El recorrido es facil y permite unas vistas magníficas de La Calzada de los Gigantes y su entorno, da una visión mas completa que visitar solo la calzada. El esta época, primavera, el campo está magnífico con muchas flores silvestres, hasta prímulas que yo pensaba que solo eran cultivadas
