For our February walk we thought we would walk from Bangor to Holywood, As well as having a flat terrain and nice views of Belfast Lough and the Belfast Hills, this route should be clear of ice – just in case winter does call.
We shall meet at Bangor train station at 10.15, this is the time that the 9.08 train from Lisburn arrives at Bangor station.
On previous walks some people chose to drive to Holywood Station and board the train there, while others preferred to get the train from their nearest station to Bangor and take the train home from Holywood.
NI Railway have a Sunday Day Tracker fare, for £7.50 which allows for unlimited travel on all trains
The times are listed below but please check the timetable for confirmation.

We would plan once again to stop at the Crawfordsburn Country Park for a walk around the waterfall and some coffee or scones in the cafe. We intend to finish the walk with a stop in the Dirty Duck pub in Holywood before getting the train back to Belfast or Lisburn, these trains are approx 47 past the hour eg, 15.47, 16.47 etc
