Knocklayde mountain towers above Ballycastle at 514 metres and can be seen for miles around. I have yet to climb it, but I can hazard a guess at the magnificent site that will greet me when I do. You can gain access from the Glenshesk side via a local farmer’s yard who is only to happy to let you park your car and pass through his farm to the base of the mountain. Be prepared for a steep climb, not for the fainthearted.
