Carrick a Rede Rope Bridge
Georgina Campbell
Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge is a rope suspension bridge that links the mainland cliffs of north County Antrim to the tiny Carrick Island. It was traditionally erected by Salmon fisherman each year to allow them to access rich waters, spanning 20 metres and at 30 metres above the rocks and ocean below it offers a truly exhilirating experience with breathtaking views.
