It spans 20 metres and is 30 metres above the rocks below. The bridge is mainly a tourist attraction and is owned and maintained by the National Trust. The bridge is open all year round subject to weather and people may cross it for a fee. Carrickarede island is the best example of a volcanic plug in Northern Ireland.
