Northern Ireland is known as “Game of Thrones Territory®” with filming locations dotted around the region. In County Down, Tollymore Forest Park doubled as the atmospheric Haunted Forest in the series. Meanwhile, the 18th-century splendour of Castle Ward wowed on screen as Winterfell. In Belfast, don’t miss the unique Glass of Thrones walking trail along the Maritime Mile, where huge Game of Thrones®-themed stained-glass windows depict key moments from the series. Slightly further afield in County Antrim, the postcard-perfect Dark Hedges, brooding Cushendun Caves and expansive Downhill Beach await. A blockbuster tale called for GIANT landscapes to match, and Northern Ireland answered the call in style.
