A Walk Along Blackhead Path | County Antrim

In this video, we walk the newly restored Blackhead Path & talk about the history along the way. The path section at the bottom of the lighthouse is particularly interesting and is my favourite part of the walk. We also get to see Blackhead Lighthouse up close and from a different perspective before heading back down the cliff and back to the start of the walk.

Wow Colin I didn't know this wonderful gem was open again after being made secure. We have walked it many many times. Thanks for this excellent professionally made, commentary and drone footage included, video. Wow! Pretty classy!

Thank you Valerie, glad you enjoyed the video & have experienced the path for yourself!

Only discovered about this walk today and found your video... really well done.. the visuals and the information on the history you included. And the music was not at all intrusive. As near to going on the walk oneself as possible!

Great video, beautifully filmed and edited. Curious as to what gear you used.

[@ColinM_YouTube]

I use a GoPro camera mounted on a gimbal. I’ve found the GoPro to fulfil my needs on most occasions, but it can struggle with low light & obviously has only a small digital zoom which I don’t use. For the aerial footage I must be the only person still using the GoPro karma!!. I will get a dji drone at some point in the future as the karma is too bulky. I do sometimes use my lumix g7 but really need to get a gimbal for it.

Justin Macartney yes that’s fine, thanks!

[@vickypollardismyhero]

Do you know if it is suitable to walk on evening, is it lit up?

[@ColinM_YouTube]

It’s not lit up, so I would only do it in summer evenings.
