バリーマックワードロワーのおすすめライド

If you want to get to Belfast city center without a car and stress, this is the right place.

The path, which is part of National Cycle Route 9, offers a peaceful atmosphere that is ideal for relaxed bike rides - but walkers, joggers and dog owners also appreciate the route. The contrast between the quiet river and the partially flooded sections that can appear after heavy rain is particularly exciting. Sometimes the path leads directly to the water, and it almost seems as if the Lagan wants to reclaim a bit more space. The trees are reflected in the calm waters, which creates an almost mystical atmosphere in cloudy weather. Another highlight are the small, branching mountain bike trails that bring a bit of adventure to the tour. If you want a change and don't just want to follow the river, these trails offer a welcome change.

Heading towards Dromara is difficult from the very start. Easier start if heading towards Belfast and Ballynahinch.

One of the most popular outdoor spots in the province. The Towpath is part of the Ulster Way. You can walk, run or cycle completely traffic free from the Castlereagh hills to Lisburn.

Take in the fabulous views of Lough Neagh from this stretch of road.

Pretty bay of Lough Neagh, good place to stop and appreciate the water.

Fine viaduct across the Lagan Towpath. A nice and quiet place to ride a bike on a good traffic free path.

Excellent way of getting through Lisburn if one wants to avoid the traffic. Beautiful scenery and plenty of spots for a picnic. There was even a bike tool station while we were there.
