A beautiful reservoir surrounded by forest including a beautiful castle

The Perfectly kept motte and bailie is placed in a bend of the Lagan River with extensive views along the valley. It is the best preserved and most impressive example in Ulster of an Anglo-Norman motte and bailey castle.

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

Drumkeeragh is a beautiful coniferous woodland located in the southern region of Northern Ireland. The forest is in a mountaineous area, creating an elevated position to enjoy far-reaching views toward the Mourne Mountains, coastline & surrounding lush counyside.

Craigavon Balancing Lakes, referred locally as 'The Lakes' are a set of man-made lakes built in the 1970s to control flooding. The route around the lakes is entirely flat and follows a mixture of paved and gravel paths close to the shoreline, which creates some wonderful water views as you jog along.

Built by Hugh Annesley in 1884 and used by the Annesley family as a tea house. Brilliant view of the lake and forest around it, with some excellent mixed terrain trails to explore.

A pretty lake with a lovely path for cycling / walking around. The lake is also popular with anglers.

Similarly to a reservoir, these balancing lakes function as a water store. However, instead of storing the water for the purposes of consumption it is utilised to temporarily store flood waters. As the surrounding areas become more built up with hard surfaces, less rain excess water is stored by soil resulting in it routing quicker into the rivers. These balancing lakes help by reducing the volume of rain water reaching the rivers, which prevents flooding. And more importantly for cyclists it has the great byproduct of providing a pretty feature for MTB trails to be built around!
