Romantic, atmospheric, tunnel-like avenue of intertwined beech trees, planted in the 18th-century.
Bregagh Rd Ballymoney Ballymoney District BT53 8PX United Kingdom
In misty weather, these beech trees are amazingly spooky. You'll find them hard to photograph unless you come early in the morning as your shot will be spoilt by the crowds trying to do the same.
The trees have been used as a filming location in HBO's epic series Game of Thrones, representing the King's Road . In season 2 episode 1, Arya Stark, disguised as a boy, travels down the road .
The trees were planted by the Stuart family in the 18th century, as a landscape feature to impress visitors to their home, Gracehill House. Two centuries later, they remain a magnificent sight.
Beautiful spot. Best if you park up at the hotel and walk down. The trees are nicer with fewer cars in the way ????
A must visit for any Game of Thrones fan while in Northern Ireland. Park your car at either end of the road and enjoy the amazing walk under the dark hedges
The trees are 200 years into a 220 year lifespan and some are lost to storms each year. Go see them soon before they're gone!
It was absolutely beautiful - wish we could have been there with the sun because the dark sky was sort of dreary. But amazing none the less.
There's an area to pullover and park the car, if you're coming from B15 (from the east), right before the bend. I think the best views are also from that side (looking northwest).
Visitors are advised to park in the nearby hotel and walk down the lane, rather than driving down, which is causing damage to the verges, and spoiling the photo opportunities for visitors. Read more
Really nice Game of Thrones scene "The King's Road ". People said it is difficult to find but we just added to google maps and follow it on the phone without a problem
Gorgeous photo ops and a chance to relish in the beauty of nature. GoT fans will love it.
It’s a pedestrian path now, so it’s lovely that you can walk down it; however, parking to be able to walk it is extremely limited.
Very cool road - featured in numerous films and travel blogs - go early or late to avoid the crowds of people .

If you love GoT this is a must see. Worth a quick visit.
Might not be super interesting if you aren’t a GOT fan. Still, beautiful even with the crowds of people .
A beautiful and very old street with trees , beside GOT it’s worth to visit
Visit early in the morning or late in the evening to get a chance of taking a perfect photo
Overpopulated but not overrated! So scenic ! You can park at the hedges hotel for free in the evening and just walk up!
Pedestrians only! Read the signs and park your car ????
One for the game of thrones fans . When all’s said and done, it’s just a road with some trees either side.
Driving or parking on the road is illegal. Don’t be that guy. Park in the hotel parking lot like everyone else.

Cute country road with 300 year old beech trees .
Very beautiful worth a visit
Nature at its fine beauty
They pruned all the trees so it’s not what it once was... saw better hedged roads on our way to/from.
Go early in the morning to avoid idiots standing taking photographs of each other
Beautiful road , but so full of tourists !
Walk; don't drive past
For GOT fans only. Just trees .
Looks better on TV
Game of Thrones Filming Location
It’s a beautiful walk but it does not worth to go out of your way to get here. You’ll be done in no time.
★★★½ Surévalué! Le Dark Hedges, lieu mythique, est de loin très surévalué.
espectacular este sitio. Por un lado es donde ocurrió el Camino de los Reyes de GOT y por el otro tiene la leyenda de la Dama Grisronda
Esperienza davvero bella in un viale suggestivo . Per gli amanti se " il trono di spade " è una chicca da vedere
Uma estrada que dependendo de como tirar a foto fica bem bonita. Mas nada mais que uma estrada. Famosa pelo Game of Thrones.

Qui puoi riviverle una delle scene di game of trones !
La cosa più bella del trono di spade
Bathrooms & people at the Hotel are delightful! - M Thurman
A walk around the premises, I would love to go here with proper walking boots and take the challenging yellow route. the audio guide was a little short but nice! - Viktor Skierus
Truly magnificent and totally worth a visit. Extremely peaceful on a calm, lesser windy day. (Only a trip for sensible footwear too!) - Morgan Skinner
Stunningly positioned castle on a cliff top with amazing views out to sea. Well worth the entrance fee. - Carl Griffin
