The Maghery Footbridge on the edge of Lough Neagh offers a small moment of peace in the midst of the expansive landscape. As you cross the bridge, your gaze glides over the gentle waters of the largest lake in the British Isles. In good weather, the clouds are impressively reflected on the surface of the water, making the scene look almost like a painting. Even when the sky is cloudy, the lake has a special atmosphere that invites you to linger rather than to quickly pass by. The paths around the bridge are mostly flat, but you should be prepared for occasional sections with unpaved surfaces. This could be a bit slippery, especially in wet weather, but this is not a problem. The connection to the National Cycle Network, Route 94, also offers you many other opportunities to explore the area. A little tip: Maghery itself does not have much to offer apart from the bridge, but a short detour to the nearby Oxford Island nature reserve is definitely worth it. This means you can easily combine a visit to the bridge with a larger circular tour.

From the shore at Maghery, the view falls directly on Coney Island, which lies quietly in Lough Neagh. The rough waters of the lake, which are constantly in motion, create a special atmosphere that alternates between calm and turmoil. The cool breeze carries the scent of the wild vegetation on the shore, while the sound of the waves sets the tone for the moment. Coney Island itself seems almost untouched, a small spot in the vastness of the lake that seems to tell stories of times gone by. It may be tempting to imagine what it would be like to row there and explore the island. But from here it remains a place of longing in the distance - close enough to arouse curiosity, but far enough to keep a certain mystery. The view is impressive, but on stormy days you realize that nature can be rough here. Perhaps not the ideal place for a long rest, but a place that is worth a moment's pause before continuing on the path.
