A series of safety improvements have been completed at a path near Northern Ireland's famous Galgorm Resort and Spa in County Antrim.

Millennium Path at Galgorm Wood had previously been closed after concerns were expressed that some sections were unsafe.

The Galgorm route, which is also able to be accessed by members of the public, has since reopened.

Mid and East Antrim Council worked closely with Galgorm Resort and Spa to ensure that overhanging branches, which were posing a danger, have been removed as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Director of Operations, Philip Thompson, said: "I would like to thank Galgorm Resort and Spa for their ongoing agreement and for carrying out the extensive works to improve the safety of the Millennium Path. 

"I know many people enjoy this walk so I am delighted to see that it has been reopened to the public."
