Chase the Sun UK Ireland

Chase the sun from sunrise on the Irish Sea at the historic Titanic docks of Belfast, up the dramatic coastal road and the Antrim Glens, heading inland to traverse forests, mountains, and loughs. Riders will discover many of the mythical landscapes and landmarks of the ’emerald isle’. The Chase The Sun Ireland coast to coast route crosses the border of Northern and Republic of Ireland and finishes at sunset along the wild Atlantic way beaches at Enniscrone.​
