Crawfordsburn Country Park

Make your first stop in Northern Ireland Crawfordsburn Country Park (www.ehsni.gov.uk/crawfordsburn.shtml). Situated on the southern shores of Belfast Lough, C.S. Lewis visited the park regularly. Here, you can see the lamppost that inspired the one he wrote about in Narnia. While you're there, take the chance to explore the 3.5 miles of beautiful coastline and scenic walks at the park.
