Stop 7

The Dark Hedges is an avenue of beech trees along Bregagh Road between Armoy and Stranocum in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The trees form an atmospheric tunnel that has been used as a location in HBO's popular television series Game of Thrones, which has resulted in the avenue becoming a popular tourist attraction.
According to legend, the hedges are visited by a ghost called the Grey Lady, who travels the road and flits across it from tree to tree. She is claimed to be either the spirit of James Stuart's daughter (named "Cross Peggy") or one of the house's maids who died mysteriously, or a spirit from an abandoned graveyard beneath the fields, who on Halloween is joined on her visitation by other spirits from the graveyard.
The Dark Hedges were used as a filming location for the "King's Road" in the television series Game of Thrones.The trees have also been used in the 2017 Transformers film The Last Knight.

The Cushendun Caves are located in County Antrim in Northern Ireland. Although they are very old, they are known to the public only since the broadcast of the “Game of Thrones” series (the Iron Throne), the series having shot some emblematic scenes within the caves. A must for fans, and lovers of unsuspected tourist treasures!
We then proceed to Cushendun where we visit the Dark Caves. The Dark Caves is where the Red Priestess, Melisandre gives birth to a Shadow in a cave close to Renly's encampment while Ser Davos Seaworth watches in horror.

Larrybane Quarry served as the setting for an important Game of Thrones scene when it was used as Renly Baratheon’s Camp in the TV series.
