Absolutely overrated. Many trees have been broken or cut down. Completely overcrowded during normal daytime. You really don't have to go there...only if it's on your way.

The majestic Breen Forest covers an area of 600 hectares. A wide path leads you through the forest amongst beautiful native oak within a mainly coniferous woodland of maturing spruce, larch and pine.

The door is inside the hotel. If you politely ask for it, you'll even get a "passport" with all of the Game of Thrones doors.

It is a street popularly known as Dark Hedges. It is only a few hundred meters long and a tree worth seeing. The road is north east of Ballymoney. There is a small parking lot at the end of the street. From there you can “hike” the avenue in peace and quiet on foot. The street was a filming location for a scene in the hit fantasy series Games of Thrones.
