Slievenacloy Nature Reserve
Co. Antrim
Medium walkModerateOn-lead requiredParking
An open grassland reserve high in the Belfast Hills, with rolling paths, wildflowers and wide views toward Lough Neagh. There's a real sense of space for dogs to enjoy, though it's a working conservation site grazed by livestock, so leads are needed around animals and ground-nesting birds. A quiet, big-sky walk away from the crowds.
