De An Bealach Glas (The Greenway)는 Newry와 기념비적인 Victoria Lock을 연결하는 아름답고 차량 통행이 없는 자전거 도로입니다. 이 6km 길이의 '녹색 경로'는 조수 강인 Clanrye 강과 해협을 따라 이어지며, 왼쪽에는 인상적인 Mourne Mountains의 봉우리들이, 오른쪽에는 Cooley Mountains가 펼쳐집니다.

뉴리(Newry) 시를 뒤로하고 나면, 카링퍼드 러프 그린웨이(Carlingford Lough Greenway)라고도 불리는 안 벨라흐 글라스(An Bealach Glas)에서 평온함을 향해 자전거를 타게 됩니다. 이 평평하고 매끄럽게 포장된 길은 운하둑을 따라 이어지며, 강가의 갯벌 지대의 멋진 풍경을 선사합니다. 이곳에서는 수많은 도요새와 때로는 길 잃은 물개까지 볼 수 있습니다. 이 경로는 진정한 감각적 경험을 선사합니다. 짠 바닷바람이 얼굴을 스치고 산은 점점 더 가까워지는 것처럼 보입니다. 이 구간의 최종 목적지는 1850년에 지어진 인상적인 수문 시설인 역사적인 빅토리아 록(Victoria Lock)으로, 운하에서 카링퍼드 러프(Carlingford Lough)의 탁 트인 바다로 이어지는 전환점을 표시합니다. 해안으로 여정을 계속하기 전에 잠시 바람을 쐬고 해양의 역동성을 즐기기에 완벽한 장소입니다.

Here, too, passersby encounter a "war memorial" in the center of town. Everywhere in the villages and towns, victims were mourned during the terrible wars (especially, but not only, in the first half of the last century) – often young people who had to endure suffering and pain and ultimately paid with their own lives for their service to their fatherland far from home. Their names are always inscribed on the respective memorial to at least keep the memory alive.

The war memorial in Bessbrook stands silently yet full of meaning in the heart of the village. The white obelisk bears the names of almost ninety people who gave their lives in the Second World War - a sign of remembrance and remembrance of those who once lived here and defended their homeland. As you walk past, you can read the inscriptions that tell the stories of those who fell. The square around the memorial is simple, but that is precisely what draws the focus to the message of remembrance and the silent commemoration of the past. The surrounding houses seem to carry the history of the place and you can almost feel how yesterday and today are connected here. A place that makes you pause and reminds you of how important it is to preserve history.

The Carlingford Lough Greenway has a special atmosphere as you walk along this section of Newry. With the Newry Ship Canal to your left and the Newry River to your right, you're in the middle of two worlds. The calm waters of the canal reflect the sky, making the surroundings seem almost like a backdrop, while the riverbank on the other side is lush with greenery and wild flowers. The narrow path takes you past flowering gorse and you can smell the scent of the vegetation in the air. It's a route that has its charms in every season, whether it's clear skies or when grey clouds hang low and make the water seem almost mystical. The Greenway is perfect for a leisurely stroll or a leisurely bike ride, enjoying being close to nature - an ideal place to clear your head.

Camlough Lake is a peaceful place where time seems to pass more slowly. As you stroll along the path, the sparkling water stretches out before you, framed by rolling hills and the shade of the surrounding forests. A few curious goats watch you from a meadow, their gaze almost as interested as yours as you enjoy the view. There is not only nature to experience here, but also small amenities - a car park and a picnic area invite you to take a break. The view of the lake, which once served as a reservoir, is a wonderful way to relax. The lake is also a popular destination for anglers who wait patiently for their catch here. A walk around Camlough Lake is a welcome break that simply does you good.
