 Newry
and Mourne District Council invites you to an activity break in
some of the most beautiful and unspoiled countryside in Ulster.
Located in the
south eastern corner of Northern Ireland, the Newry and Mourne area
extends from the southern slopes of the Mourne Mountains to the
legendary Ring of
Gullion and offers great diversity of scenery, culture and leisure
activities.
Newry and Mourne
includes some of the most dramatic and picturesque scenery in Ireland.
Rising dramatically from the sea, the Mourne Mountains dominate
the South Down landscape and contrast with the lowland plains around
Kilkeel and the mudflats and the salt marsh areas of Carlingford
Lough - important for birds and other wildlife.
The Ring of
Gullion in South Armagh is the most spectacular example of a ring-dyke
intrusion in the British Isles. Slieve Gullion is a huge whale-shaped
mountain circled by a ring of hills. The surrounding area is undulating
and encompasses both bog land and cultivated farmland.
