クロベインのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

There is something enchanted about this old, dilapidated stone hut - as if it were whispering stories of times gone by, when the canal was still full of life and the lock keepers worked here day and night. The walls, overgrown with greenery and moss, show how nature is slowly reclaiming its place. The building itself is only a ruin, but that is precisely what makes it somehow interesting. The mixture of broken brickwork and wild growth has something melancholic about it that fits perfectly into the tranquility of the surroundings. Right next to it there is a small rest area with a bench - ideal for stopping for a moment and taking in the atmosphere.

The Carlingford Lough Greenway has a special atmosphere as you walk along this section of Newry. With the Newry Ship Canal to your left and the Newry River to your right, you're in the middle of two worlds. The calm waters of the canal reflect the sky, making the surroundings seem almost like a backdrop, while the riverbank on the other side is lush with greenery and wild flowers. The narrow path takes you past flowering gorse and you can smell the scent of the vegetation in the air. It's a route that has its charms in every season, whether it's clear skies or when grey clouds hang low and make the water seem almost mystical. The Greenway is perfect for a leisurely stroll or a leisurely bike ride, enjoying being close to nature - an ideal place to clear your head.

This is an impressive section of the Carlingford Lough Greenway as you arrive in Newry. The feeling is incredible as you walk along a path where on one side you have the Newry Ship Canal, and on the other, the Newry River.

Beautiful path surrounded by water on both sides. Incredible way to get into Newry.

Close to the River by the centre

Now in ruins, the lock keeper's cottage is a good reminder of the important industrial history of the canal and the vital roles played by those who worked on it.

Lovely and quiet path running between the estuary and canal. With the water on both sides there are plenty of opportunities to spot the local wildlife including herons.

Lovely run along the canal side. Generally quiet and just the occasional walker/runner/cyclist along the way. Keep an eye out for herons and other bird life.
