**UPDATE Wednesday 21st Aug 2019 - Giveaway closed and winner announced further below!

Last week, Jeep Belfast asked if we’d like to take their All-New 4x4 Wrangler Overland for a while.

In the calmest voice possible, we said sure*…’

(*trying to hide all signs of childish excitement).

As you know, this ain’t Top Gear.

So switch off now if you’re expecting 0-60 timings and spec.

Instead, we had a think…made a few calls…and put together an adventure…with the chance for you to win it too.

Here’s what we got up to...

(Giveaway details further below.)

BINEVENAGH

Leaving from Belfast, we headed in the direction of Limavady, taking the scenic route through one of Northern Ireland’s most stunning locations.

An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Binevenagh Mountain, Forest and wider area have to be on your NI bucket list.

 

And for endless views over Benone, Magilligan and as far as the Inishowen Peninsula in Co Donegal, get yourself onto the Bishops Road.

You’ll find Manannán mac Lir, the mythical Irish sea god perched at the very top. This is Gortmore viewing point.

BENONE STRAND

With the beaches of Magillgan and Downhill either side, Benone is probably the most popular access point to seven beautiful miles of golden sand.

And if you don’t know already, yes you can drive on it.

We spent a few hours here with the guys from Long Line Surf School

…having brilliant fun as we tried our best to stay on our boards longer than 5 seconds.

And thanks to the great coaching, we were up and thinking we were pros in no time.

Long Line also offer stand up paddleboarding (SUP) lessons and equipment/gear hire. We were meant to do this as well, but completely lost track of time with the surfing.

Great excuse to come back another day!

SWANNS BRIDGE GLAMPING

Long Line’s SUP activities take place on the River Roe, a few miles down the road from where we were surfing.

This is also where you’ll find the most adventure-tastic accommodation at Swanns Bridge Glamping.

Each bell tent/pod/yurt has its own private seating area and fire pit.

The perfect way to end a day of outdoor activities - listening to the sounds of nature, but with ‘a bit of glam’, as they say.
