	Glens of Antrim tourist information, travel info & photos @ TREKtheUK.com
		The Glens were one of the last places in Northern Ireland where Gaelic was spoken and are rich in history and folklore, with many ruined fortresses and ancient sites scattered throughout their valleys and moors.
		The largest glen is Glenariff, known as the 'Queen of the Glens', a huge U-shaped valley in which the moors taper towards dramatic headlands dropping down to the coast, with a wide beach at the village of Waterfoot.
		The Glens are famous for their festivals, particularly the Heart of the Glens festival at Cushendall in August, although there are other festivals in Cushendun and Glenarm that take place in July.
