Start of a beautiful path

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.

There are great views of Newry City, The Mourne Mountains, Carlingford Lough and The Cooley Moiuntains from up here. Flags were raised here to announce arriving boats coming into the lough, hence the name Flagstaff.

This cycle and walking route from the Bann Bridge in Portadown to the Town Hall in Newry is a 20 mile trip on part of route 9 of the National Cycle Network. The route follows the towpath on the western bank of the, now non-navigable, Newry Canal. Here's a bit about the Canals history. Built to transport coal from Coalisland in County Tyrone to Dublin via Lough Neagh, Portadown, Newry and the Irish Sea, the Newry Canal was opened in 1742. It operated for almost 200 years until it fell into disuse following the growth of the railway network. Frequent interpretation boards along the way give information about the history of the canal. You will also find lots of art pieces along the route including Sustrans commissioned Millennium Mileposts and a series of pieces which reflect the former work and nature of the Newry Canal.

Beautiful spot!

The meeting spot for most hikes, runs, bike rides etc that start in Rostrevor.

Good road surface with great views on all sides.

Beautiful stretch of road along the bay from/to Warrenpoint. Great sea views across the bay and some nice stoney beaches if you want to take a break.
