The Gobbins Cliff Path is extremely popular so please book as early as you can to avoid disappointment. The Gobbins is the most dramatic cliff walk in Europe. The Path was masterminded by the Irish railway engineer, Berkley Dean Wise as an incredible tourist attraction. The path originally opened in 1902 and was later abandoned in the 1960’s until an investment of over £7.5 million brought about its rebirth in 2015. This ticket includes entrance to The Gobbins visitor centre, which is where your adventure begins. The centre hosts a fabulous interactive exhibition telling the history of The Gobbins Path, its flora and fauna, and the story of how the path was reborn. You will then meet your guide who will brief you and take you on the 2.5 hour spectacular walking tour. The Gobbins Path is an arduous trek that is often narrow and uneven, accessed by a very steep pathway. Due to the nature of the rugged coastal location suitable outdoor clothing and walking boots or shoes are essential. Without exception, all guests must wear a safety helmet whilst experiencing The Gobbins. To enjoy The Gobbins a good level of fitness is needed. You must be fit enough to climb 50 flights of stairs and walk a very steep 1 in 5 gradient. Guests with young children or with reduced mobility are welcome to browse our gift shop, enjoy a coffee or a meal in The Gobbins Cafe, or enjoy the outdoor children’s play and picnic area. You may also avail of the free car parking located at the Visitor Centre. The Gobbins Path may not be suitable for everyone so you must ensure that you have read all of the Health and Safety section in the ‘More Information’ tab before booking.
