The Dark Hedges is an atmospheric avenue of beech trees, originally planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family to impress visitors approaching their Gracehill House mansion. Today, it’s renowned worldwide thanks to its feature as "King's Road" in the television series Game of Thrones. For photo-travelers, the best time to capture its ethereal beauty is during the golden hours of early morning or late afternoon when the light pierces through the interlocking branches. Foggy or cloudy days add dramatic effect to your shots. Located near Ballymoney, it's less crowded at sunrise or sunset, but be mindful of incoming vehicles on this public road. Exploring nearby Ballycastle or the Giant’s Causeway can also enrich your photography journey.
