Here, too, passersby encounter a "war memorial" in the center of town. Everywhere in the villages and towns, victims were mourned during the terrible wars (especially, but not only, in the first half of the last century) – often young people who had to endure suffering and pain and ultimately paid with their own lives for their service to their fatherland far from home. Their names are always inscribed on the respective memorial to at least keep the memory alive.

We had an amazing day thanks to Ring of Gullion Cycle Tours. Our bikes were well maintained and service was exceptional. We were advised by proprietor James to take the Cooley Tour through this app as the weather was spectacular and it was such good advice. Also recommended a stop off at Lumpers Bar and added a drink voucher for good measure. I can’t recommend these guys enough. The service and standard of care was truly amazing. Do yourself a favour and drop in here and do some cycling - or buy your own bike!!

Táin Wayは、カーリングフォードで始まりカーリングフォードで終わる、全長40キロメートル（25マイル）の円形のハイキングコースです。 古代アイルランドの叙事詩「Táin Bó Cúailnge」にちなんで名付けられたこのルートは、クーリー半島を蛇行し、海岸の景色、森の小道、山のトレイルが混在しています。通常2日間かけて踏破され、総上昇量は約1,025メートルで、黒い背景に黄色い矢印で表示されています。 道中、ハイカーは青銅器時代の石塚のような史跡に出会い、カーリングフォード・ラフとモーヌ山のパノラマビューを楽しむことができます。オミースとレイヴンズデールには代替の登山口があり、さまざまな出発点に対応できます。 農耕地の区間では犬の立ち入りは許可されていませんのでご注意ください。

The setting is done with great attention to detail, and it almost feels like a quick picnic in the mountains when you sit down at the rustic tables and look into the distance. The patterned cups and saucers give the place a cozy touch and make the whole thing that little bit more special. The view of the surrounding hills and the relaxed atmosphere invite you to take a short break - perfect for resting your legs and just taking a breather. The coffee house is not only friendly to cyclists, but even offers bike rental for the Ring of Gullion. Handy if you need an extra boost for the next stage! The surroundings are green and spacious, a nice mix of Irish idyll and relaxed hospitality. The owners seem to take the attention to detail seriously, which is reflected in the little things like the decorative elements and the cozy atmosphere.

A quick stop at the coffee and snack hut next to Lumper's Bar is just the thing to recharge your batteries after a challenging stage. The small hut offers everything a cyclist's heart desires: fresh coffee, sweet waffles and hearty snacks that give you the energy you need for the next stretch. With the smell of freshly brewed coffee in the air and the cozy atmosphere, it's easy to take a quick breather and rest your legs here. The location right on the road makes it an ideal stopover, even if the traffic can be a bit noisy at times. But hey, who cares about small things with such beautiful surroundings and typical Irish hospitality? The colorful bench and the small decorations give the place a special charm that invites you to linger - even if it's just for a moment.

The Craigmore Viaduct is an impressive structure, with its 18 arches spanning the Camlough River Valley, dominating the landscape of south Armagh. As I cycled along the gently curving roads, the viaduct suddenly appeared on the horizon - a massive but elegant sight. The tall stone arches seem to effortlessly support the train traffic that runs between Dublin and Belfast. I stopped for a moment to take a closer look at the structure. It is fascinating to know that this structure has been standing here since 1852, designed by Irish engineer John Benjamin Macneill. The highest arch rises 126 feet, and standing under it you can really appreciate the scale and importance of this structure to the region. The surroundings are just perfect for putting your bike down and taking some time to look at the view. Perhaps a small lookout point with information about the history of the viaduct would be a nice addition, but even without it it is a worthwhile stop along the way. We continue, but the image of the arches remains in our minds.
