Took a drive to Belfast Castle on saturday afternoon. Parked near to the Castle and walked Cavehill following the Trial route:-

It was a beautiful day; dry, warm and sunny with a light breeze. Well worth a trip if you can't get to or are looking an alternative to Mourne country.
Had a cuppa in the first cave and then had another break at McArts Fort at the top to enjoy the views over Belfast Lough. My PC won't let me attach phots to Posts so have to do it this way.

It's a great spot. I would be up there regularly - you get some great views when it's clear.
