Be lured off the beaten track to eight hidden gems of the Causeway Coast and Glens. Discover stories of sea gods, shipwrecks and sídhe-folk at sites where epic vistas hold secrets waiting to be discovered.

The  heritage trail app will allow visitors to discover the sights, sounds and secrets of their location with exclusive photos, interactive experiences and dramatic audio pieces inspired by the myths and folklore linked to the site.

Each visit will be supported by accessibility information on what’s there, what’s near, and instructions of how to get there. There are sites for people of all abilities, from the relaxed to the more adventurous.

The free Echoes of the Causeway app is available at Google Play for android devices, or through the AppStore for iOS. You can download a brochure from the Resources page HERE.
