Muff, derived from the Irish word 'Magh' (meaning 'plain') is a village near the mouth of the River Foyle as it converges into Lough Foyle. It's close to the border separating the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Due to its humorous name, the village gets frequent smirks from passersby and visitors. Despite recent proposals to rename it, such suggestions have been consistently rejected. Now, residents are embracing its double entendre fame, with merchandise like T-shirts, keyrings, and baseballs featuring the slogan 'I love Muff' being sold online. Since the early 17th century, the small town has celebrated summer with the annual 'Muff Festival'.

The Peace Bridge is a striking pedestrian and cycle bridge spanning the River Foyle. Opened in 2011, the bridge serves as a symbol of unity, connecting the city's Protestant and Catholic communities. Its distinctive, sweeping design by architect WilkinsonEyre has garnered international acclaim.

Garvagh Forest is filled with mysterious features. This one is a wood-carving of a rabbit and is situated on the western side of the park. Discovering the others is quite an adventure and makes a great day out for families.

It's quite an unusual experience stumbling into a pyramid in the middle of an Irish forest! This pyramid was built in the 19th century as a burial chamber for Lord Garvagh and is a lovelly feature to the forest today.

Go and see this unique building before it falls into the sea! Coastal erosion has brought the temple very close to the edge of the cliff.
