One of a number of waterfalls in Glenariff Forest Park

Glenariff Forest Park is an 1185 hectare (2928 acre) forest in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. It is part of Glenariff itself. The forest is managed by the Northern Ireland Forest Service, the state body responsible for forestry in the province.

Management objectives include the production of timber and the development of the forests recreational resource. There are a number of walking trails, the most popular of which follow the rivers Inver and Glenariff, and their associated waterfalls.

Timber production is centered around the clearfelling of coniferous plantation trees.
