Northern Ireland

When it comes to spotting a bluebell bounty in Northern Ireland, we've got some of the top places to see bluebells near you. The National Trust is one of the most important organisations in the conservation of bluebells. Spot the star of the spring show at our places near you.

Cattle at a Crom in County Fermanagh have completed their unconventional annual pilgrimage – by swimming 100m across Lough Erne to graze fresh pasture. Take a look at this video from previous years which captures the cows swimming across Lough Erne to graze at their remote wildlife haven.

A new book – 125 Treasures from the Collections of the National Trust – shares the stories behind some remarkable objects and takes readers on a journey through time, starting with Roman sculpture and ending with 20th-century design. Northern Ireland is home to three of these treasures.

Spring blossoms radiate joy and lift our spirits. Enjoy their sweet scents and delicate pastels as they burst into beacons of joy near you.

Join our #BlossomWatch campaign on social media. Take time to admire spring blossom, whether it's from your window, on your street or local walk, or in your garden if you’re lucky enough to have it grow there. You can also share sightings on our blossom map and learn more about identifying blossom and how these floral wonders support wildlife.

Slow down and connect to nature with these activities all about blossom. You can find a guide to spotting different blossom types, ideas for practicing mindfulness day-to-day and a spring poem to get into the spirit of the season.
