Where is the start of the Glenariff Viewpoint Trail for shorter forest walks?

The Viewpoint Trail begins directly from Glenariff Forest Park's main parking area on the A43.

This shorter woodland loop is approximately 0.6 miles, passes a lookout over the glen and returns by woodland and gardens. It is generally less demanding than the Waterfall Walk but the listing still notes steep sections.

Practical advice: Choose this circuit if you want a shorter walk without committing to the gorge steps. Do not interpret the 'easy' label as guaranteed wheelchair access; ask locally about gradients and remember that the same forest-parking charge applies.
