Description:
From Wikipedia: an avenue of beech trees along Bregagh Road between Armoy and Stranocum in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The trees form an atmospheric tunnel that has been used as a location in HBO's popular television series Game of Thrones, which has resulted in the avenue becoming a popular tourist attraction.
Of the 150 trees originally planted, only about 900 remain. There are many trees which may topple over during a storm. The road is closed to most traffic.
An episode of the Game of Thrones (Kings Road) was filmed here. Also a Transformer movie, The Last Knight also was filmed here.
Trips:
- July 17, 2025 - Went to Dark Hedges and started to walk it. Then the skies opened up and we were drenched. Decided to retreat to the warmth of a shop.
