グラスドラムマンアッパーのおすすめライド

A great little cafe set in the bike shop, with great coffee and a nice variety of sweet goodies.

The vast coastline stretches out endlessly before you, and the panorama with the majestic Mourne Hills in the background creates a scene that is hard to put into words. The gentle waves touching the sand and the silence of the surroundings make you feel the vastness and freedom of this place.

The ancient stone arches are perfectly reflected in the calm water, creating an image of timeless elegance. Cycling along here almost feels like a journey back in time - as if you are capturing a moment in another time.

Dating back to the 19th century, this historic port offers an authentic insight into the region's maritime history. The well-maintained paths along the port make for a pleasant ride with views of the Mourne Mountains in the background. However, it can get slippery in wet weather, so care must be taken. A particular highlight is the Annalong Cornmill, a restored watermill that is well worth a visit. Nearby you'll find the Harbour Inn, a cosy eatery known for its fresh seafood. Note, however, that the harbour can dry out at low tide, which changes the view.

Wonderful ornate, twelve arched bridge that seems out of place in this rural setting. The surrounding fields often flood during periods of heavy rain, necessitating a longer bridge than normally appears necessary. Hence the 'Twelve Arches'. The bridge was built sometime after 1836.

Now wonderfully restored, the mill features an exhibit where you can experience how life in the past could have been like on the Mourn Mountains, and surroundings.

The lovely little harbour was historically the heart of the community. At its height shipping the quarries work put in on reshaping the surrounding hills to the UK and Ireland. But those days are dust You will however still catch a few classic vessels passing through, as they make their way down the South Down coastline. All of which you can cycle. I recommend that.

The perfect meeting spot to start any run in this area. From this point you can head either into Rostrevor village, out towards Killowen, into Kilbroney park or head north alongside the river.
