Map_p. 30. Every visitor should make this ascent for the sake of the fine panorama of Belfast, its lough, and the surrounding country. The hill has a bold escarpment, fronting east, and reminds the English Lake tourist of Saddleback in Cumberland. Take the Antrim Road tram-car, which goes by Carlisle Circus {above, PL B 4), and 1^ miles farther to Whitewell. The walk is monotonous — alongside an endless wall. 1^ miles on the way, 3 and a " bittie " from the centre of Belfast, we pass the Cave H...ill Tavern on the right, and | ni. beyond this, just past a new P.O., a narrow path turns up the hill. This path, at first railed and paled, and bristling with trespass boards, after a steep ten minutes' pull (fine view down Belfast Lough), emerges on to open ground, and, after a winding and very steep ascent under the cliffs, reaches the top — a bulwark of almost perpendicular basaltic rock, from which there is a fine bird's-eye view of the country south and east, not improved by the smoke of Belfast.
