Let the Dance Begin

Carrigans Road is a scenic lane running parallel to the River Strule and marking the western edge of the Sperrins AONB. It forms part of the North West Trail, a cycle route through counties Donegal, Tyrone, Fermanagh, Leitrim, and Sligo in the North West of Ireland. Carrigans Road is an excellent alternative to the busier A5 and links north Omagh with Newtownstewart.

Situated on a site adjacent to the Strabane bypass, the 'Let the Dance Begin' sculpture by Maurice Harron is an ensemble of five stainless steel and bronze figures. Commissioned by the former Strabane District Council in collaboration with the Strabane Lifford Development Commission, this artwork symbolises the transition to the new millennium. The statues, standing at an impressive height of approximately 30 foot (10 m) have affectionately been named "The Tinnies" by the locals.

Newtownstewart is a historic village with Baronscourt Castle as a notable attraction. Nestled in the scenic Sperrin Mountains, it offers outdoor activities like hiking and boasts a heritage-rich atmosphere with well-preserved architecture.

There is plenty to see in Castlederg for history lovers. On the pilgrim's route to Station Island on Lough Derg, it boasts monastic ruins as well as the impressive Castlederg Castle which is set in beautiful parklands accompanied by a sculpture trail.

Newtownstewart Bridge spans the Strule River on its way north to meet Fairy Water and Owenkillew.

Pretty and quiet road that travels adjacent to the River Finn where you can see views of Carricklee Hill to the south of the road.
