If your trip brings you to Derry-Londonderry on the train, you can take a short walk to the roundabout then go down the stairs toward to cross the Peace Bridge. If you arrive on the bus, the bridge is just across from the station. No matter the weather, you should take this walk! Gently arching across the river Foyle, you’ll have beautiful views of the walled city and surrounding hills. A must do on your trip to Derry-Londonderry!

Important notice - From Friday 16 April the car park at Carrick-a-Rede will reopen with a Pay By Phone system. Due to social distancing requirements, the Rope Bridge remains closed at this time.
We visited the rope bridge one afternoon last week, however due to bad weather we were told the bridge was closed. We were partially expecting this and were impressed that we were told at the gates the bridge was closed. We were told that we could still have a walk down (a nice 2km walk along the cliffs) and also pre-book a ticket for the next day. We did both of these. We were lucky that we had time to go the next morning, and booked in for the 9:30 bridge crossing. The view that day in the rain was nice and the walk is a nice walk, although we were glad we were wearing walking boots and raincoats unlike many visitors in sandals. The next morning we returned with better weather, and again did the walk and crossed the bridge. As we were early there were only a few of us crossing, meaning we didn't have to share with many people and were able to take nice photos and enjoy the views without rushing. The views surrounding the area were incredible, and crossing the bridge was an exciting (if a little scary) experience, being able to feel the bridge move in the wind. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and this is now one of my favourite National Trust places I have visited.
