About Ulster Unplugged

Ulster Unplugged is a working guide to things to do in Northern Ireland. It covers walks, beaches, playgrounds, parks and days out across Belfast and the Causeway Coast and Glens, with more regions to follow.

Every listing carries real coordinates, an address where one exists, and a source. You can see where the information comes from and when it was last checked.

The site exists because finding a reliable list of things to do with kids, dogs or a free afternoon in Northern Ireland takes more searching than it should. Council websites list facilities. Tourism sites list attractions. Neither gives you the full picture in one place.

You will find three kinds of content here. Listings are single places, such as a beach, a playground or a castle ruin. Routes are walks and cycles with distance and difficulty. Itineraries combine listings and routes into a day out, with a wet-weather fallback built in.

The magazine covers seasonal guides, practical advice and stories about specific places, written in plain language.
