    Tips

    A very flat and reasonably scenic cycle from Newry to Portadown and back. A round trip of about 18 miles. Cycling along the route of the old Newry Canal you get a chance to look at the old canal lock gates and gatekeepers cottages. A recommendation refreshment stop in Poyntzpass is Petty Sessions coffee shop, they have an excellent selection of food, sweet and savoury. You can also do sections of the route or in the opposite direction.

      Beautifully peaceful and traffic free

        The towpath is 18 miles each way. I notice one review describes the route as 18 miles round trip. Better to be clear.

        Also, as a walker, you will be surprised by cyclists coming up behind you every so often.
