A really beautiful waterfall

This small waterfall of the Schmink River can be admired less than 300 m from the hiking trail.

The Windy Gap is a well know view point, well worth the effort up here. You're surrounded by the Mourne and Slieve Croob hills in this area of outstanding natural beauty.

This famous, much illustrated, tripod portal tomb is settled in the midst of the magical Mournes, and has a large flat capstone gracefully balanced on three unusually tall supporting stones. There are slight traces of a cairn, and early records suggest ‘urns’ had been found in the dolmen. I don't think it has been excavated yet.

See if you can find your way to the peace bell in the centre of the maze. Castlewellan Peace Maze, is one of the world's largest permanent hedge mazes representing the puzzle that was to become a peaceful future for Northern Ireland. To encourage a sense of common ownership, the maze was planted by people from all over Northern Ireland, plus nearly 4,000 school children. Planted in 2000

Hen Mountain is one of the less challenging climbs of the Mourne Mountain range, not to worry though, as it still provides the stunning panoramic views that the Mournes are so good at showcasing. There are a few rocky outcrops up here which can be discovered and explored, just do watch your footing as you move about.

Probably the best mountain to take kids up! Easy access, only 1 path and great views at the top!

Easy access and great for first time hikers.
