Crossing the rope bridge is a bit unnerving as it sways. Only one person is allowed on the bridge at a time. But once you get to the other side and climb to the top of the hill the view is spectacular! It is a bit of a difficult trek over the terrain to get to the bridge but it is well worth it!

always wanted to go on this after seeing it on tv. it was very windy and half way over I wondered if it was a good idea. still glad I did.

The walk from the parking lot to the bridge is .62 miles and is posted at the ticket office. There are Steep hills and steps to climb so be prepared. The walk and views are outstanding. The bridge itself is not very big and they let 8 at a time cross. The wind off the water was chilly and exhilarating. There is a snack shop and restrooms available at the entrance by the parking lot. It's 6 pounds per person to cross the bridge. They will let you walk to the bridge for free if you don't want to pay to cross.

If I had something to say bad about this attraction it is the long walk from the car park to the bridge. I know it is in an ANOB but........

Such an under-rated part of the United Kingdom....we got the Antrim Coast bus tour and the scenery on route up to Ballintoy was absolutely wonderful.The rope bridge itself is quite a daunting experience if you dont have a head for heights especially on a blustery day with the waves swishing down below you but i enjoyed every second of it.Needless to say you need to be able bodied to do it and the jaunt to the rope bridge itself isnt the most accessible.Excellent views on the walk...and i wouldnt waste any time getting their because there can be lengthy queues.Just enjoy the scenery on the way back to the bus/car like we did :)

Great attraction but not good accessibility for the less abode bodied. We visited on 10th March a sunny but blustery day, the views on the walk ( which was slightly longer than we thought) to the bridge are stunning. We arrived early and as we were leaving a couple of bus loads of tourists arrived. Best to visit early and you will not feel rushed.

What I liked most was the the lovely views of the Antrim coastline, which started even before I crossed the rope bridge. I was lucky to get a mild day in March, but it was quite windy. I would advise anyone coming here to allow a fair amount of time, because I came here as part of a coach tour and there were a fair number of people queuing. You can't walk that quickly as they (very sensibly) control the flow of people going across the bridge. We had an hour and it wasn't enough time to get to the far end of the island, so I'd advise people to give it 1.5 hours at least.

This is worth the stop and walk down // over the bridge. It is a neat rope bridge to cross and get pictures on. And Game of Thrones was filmed near by. We got there before heavy tourists, but as we left the line was backing up. Only a few can cross the bridge at a time so it can take some time to do if there' s a line. Everyone wants pictures of course! I wish we had more time to actually sit there and just soak in the beauty of the sea and the coast line. It is truly breathtaking and magical to think of fisherman using that bridge to get to the other side to catch salmon. Seems to simple, but a rugged and risky lifestyle.

It's a longer walk than you might think, so bring comfortable shoes. The views along the way really are stunning though and the bridge itself quite scary crossing!! But overall a nice day out.

Well worth the visit, but make sure you wear comfortable shoes as there is a fairly long walk to get to the bridge on uneven ground. Bring a bottle of water and some warm layers / raincoat as you could be out for a while.

This place was beautiful, but the walk to get there was extremely long. While I wouldn't normally mind the walk, it was very miserable because of the cold and wind. The coast is beautiful but you can see it at other places too. The bridge was fun to cross over, but once you get over it, there's not really much else to see or go to. You also have to wait for a long line of people to go before you can cross.

I don't love heights...this is worth the nerves! We were traveling independently in May 2013. The first day we arrived it was too close to closing for the afternoon. We went earlier the following day. Wear many layers of clothing. It's always windy along the coast. You have a bit of a walk to the bridge itself. We were glad to have coats with hoods, scarves, and gloves, even in May. You have to go down a steep ladder to cross the bridge. It was exhilarating and I'll cross it again if I have the chance. It was so windy on our day that it was impossible to take any pictures while walking across. I was holding onto the rope railings on both sides. There were staff people there who close the bridge if there's any hint of danger due to weather. Be sure to put this on your bucket list and DO IT.Once you cross - it takes maybe 30 seconds - there are places to sit and rocks to climb for photos. Spend a little time to make it worth the time you took to get there! Then cross back, hike to the Visitor Centre, and have a snack. Clean restrooms. Nice store with good maps, books, etc.

A must see but crossing the bridge is not for the faint hearted...remember once accross you have to come back :-) most certainly worth it for the views and sense of achieving the crossing...

Having been brought up in Northern Ireland, it seems strange that I had to reach the ripe old age of 60 before daring to cross the Carrick-A-Rede rope bridge last August.Mind you the bridge (still rope) is and looks a lot safer than it did when I first eyed it as a child. The bridge was build of rope centuries ago to allow the local fishermen to cross over and descent the less steep cliffs to their fishing boats. The island itself is very small and separated by some 20 meters from the mainland - hence the rope bridge.Today it is still closed in windy weather - quite usual for the north coast of County Antrim but it is more robust. My advise when crossing - simply keep looking straight ahead and not dowards into the narrow strait of churning Ocean beneath you. Once on the other side you will feel more confident about getting back. It has become very popular with tourists in summer and there may be a queue as they limit the number of persons crossing the bridge at the same time. So off you go, take the dare and cross the rope bridge!. The views are stunning. As the area is owned by the National Trust, entry and crossing the rope bridge is free of charge.

I'm scared of heights, so this was a challenge for me. Scared the pants off myself but I was glad I did it.Price is reasonable, the views are beautiful along the 1km walk from the car park to the bridge.I just felt sorry for the poor chap taking tickets at the bridge. Freezing cold and all he has is a little stone hut for shelter!
