The North in a
25 Nutshell

On this road-trip-to-remember you’ll drive routes that cling to cliffs, cross
borders and head high onto mountain passes. You’ll witness Ireland’s
turbulent past and its inspiring path to peace. And you’ll also explore rich
faith, folk and music traditions, ride a horse across a sandy beach, cross a
swaying rope bridge and spend a night on a castaway island. Not bad for a
10-day drive.
