발리두간 최고의 러닝 경로

Bann 강 근처, Sustrans Route 9 / Newry Canal Towpath 바로 옆에 있는 작은 커피숍입니다. 이 카페는 사실상 도로변에 위치해 있어 운하 길을 따라가는 자전거 타는 사람들에게 논리적인 휴식 장소입니다. 오래된 벽돌 건물은 편안한 분위기를 가지고 있으며, 안팎으로 자전거 타는 사람들과 도보 여행자들이 서로 마주치는 장소입니다. Craigavon Lakes 방향의 운하 풍경으로 다시 들어가기 전 커피, 간단한 간식, 짧은 휴식을 취하기에 이상적입니다. 휴식은 즐거웠지만 사진 찍는 것을 잊었습니다.

강변의 그림 같은 길을 따라 모얄란 필박스를 찾을 수 있습니다. 1940년경 영국의 해안 및 내륙 방어의 일환으로 건설된 이 컴팩트한 벙커는 관측소이자 기관총 둥지로 사용되었습니다. 강을 건너는 길과 인근 도로를 감시하기 위해 전략적으로 배치된 이 견고한 구조물은 이 평화로운 풍경이 최고 수준의 경계 태세를 갖추고 있던 시대를 상기시킵니다. 지나가는 자전거 타는 사람에게는 흥미로운 휴식 장소입니다. 이끼 낀 녹색 벽은 주변 자연과 거의 완전히 조화를 이루어, 벙커는 마지막 순간에야 그 비밀을 드러냅니다. 현재의 시골의 평온함과 날카로운 대조를 이루는 거친 군사 유산의 한 조각입니다.

The paths are wide and perfect for families, as there are no cars to disturb you. As you glide along the car-free cycling and hiking trails, you can enjoy the view of the water - especially when the sky is cloudy, the lake has a very special atmosphere, almost mystical. The route is mostly asphalt, but there are also some gravel sections that provide some variety. These single-track paths add a certain challenge to the route without being really demanding. Ideal if you prefer to take it easy, but still don't want to just walk on smooth asphalt. If you want to take a break, the lake offers many corners to catch your breath and have a picnic. There is enough space on the banks to rest a bit and enjoy the surroundings to the fullest.

Ground Espresso Bars Café is located right on the road, making it an ideal stop for cyclists travelling along the Newry Canal Towpath. Just a stone's throw from the River Bann, the small café offers a welcome place to take a quick breather. Here you can recharge your batteries with a cup of coffee or a small snack before continuing on. The atmosphere around the old, charming brick building is relaxed and inviting. Its proximity to the cycle path makes it a meeting point for cyclists and walkers alike. You can have a good conversation here or just watch the cyclists go by while sitting outside. Those who continue along the river soon find themselves in a rural landscape, accompanied by the Craigavon Lakes in the distance.

The Moyallan Pillbox is an intriguing WWII relic that is an unexpected discovery along the River Bann. The old concrete structure, well camouflaged and reclaimed by nature, stands modestly on a hill overlooking the river. The views from here are particularly rewarding on a clear day when the Bann flows lazily across the landscape. It's hard to imagine that this tranquil scene was once strategically important in protecting access to the north from possible invasions. The Pillbox stands just opposite a petrol station, near the roundabout where several roads meet. The location may seem unspectacular, but with a little imagination you can glimpse the history. The concrete block quietly tells of times gone by as you pedal on, leaving the river behind. A quick stop is well worth it - not for the drama, but for the unassuming way in which history finds its place here.

At the meeting point of the Upper Bann River and the Newry Canal stands this striking signpost - a simple yet interesting construction that shows you the way. It points to places like Scarva, Newry, Portadown and Oxford Island, while the water flows quietly, creating a peaceful atmosphere. It's a moment to pause and take in the surroundings. The flow of the river, the gentle murmur and the green of the banks invite you to leave the path for a while and enjoy the view. You notice that it's not just routes that are described here, but also the connections between the towns and nature - a little reminder that every walk is more than just the path you take.

A direction post stands right where the Upper Barn River meets the Newry Canal, marking the direction of Scarva, Newry, Portadown, and Oxford Island.

The waterwheel at Craigavon Lakes is a historical landmark. It was purchased by the council in the 70s from the south of the Province and refurbished to provide energy to the local people. The wheel never got into full swing because of the lack of waterflow, however, in recent years the wheel has been seen turning for the first time!
