발린템플 최고의 사이클링 경로

The highest bar in County Louth along the Táin Way. A traditional Irish pub that offers a cozy interior with a warming fire and excellent food. A favourite amongst locals and hikers!

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.

테인 웨이(The Táin Way)는 카링포드(Carlingford)에서 시작하여 끝나는 40킬로미터(25마일) 순환 하이킹 트레일입니다. 고대 아일랜드 서사시 "타인 보 쿨랑게(Táin Bó Cúailnge)"의 이름을 딴 이 경로는 쿨리 반도(Cooley Peninsula)를 구불구불 지나며 해안 전망, 숲길, 산악 트랙을 다양하게 제공합니다. 일반적으로 이틀에 걸쳐 완료되며, 총 상승 고도는 약 1,025미터이고 검은색 배경에 노란색 화살표로 표시되어 있습니다. 하이킹을 하는 동안 청동기 시대의 석관묘와 같은 역사 유적지를 만나고 카링포드 라흐(Carlingford Lough)와 모른 산맥(Mourne Mountains)의 탁 트인 전망을 즐길 수 있습니다. 오메스(Omeath)와 레이븐스데일(Ravensdale)에 대체 출발점이 있어 다양한 시작 지점을 선택할 수 있습니다. 농경지 구간에서는 개를 동반할 수 없다는 점에 유의하시기 바랍니다.

gravel paths and a tarmac road up the middle, also has public toilets

The dam is easy to cross and from there you have a great view over the lake and the rolling hills that surround it. The peaceful atmosphere is only occasionally interrupted by the gentle rippling of the water. The reservoir provides fresh drinking water to the surrounding area and the trout fishery here is controlled by the Armagh Angling Club - so it's an interesting spot for anglers. Even if you're not here to fish, the scenery is simply relaxing and it's worth stopping for a few minutes and looking around. The roads around the lake are easy to drive on but there might be a few potholes in places - nothing that would stop a real cyclist. Overall a nice stop to enjoy nature and take a quick breather before moving on.

If you need a relaxing break on your tour of the region, Basil Sheils Bar and Restaurant is a perfect place to unwind for a moment. The colorful building, surrounded by green trees and colorful flags, immediately catches the eye. A beer garden invites you to reward yourself with a cold drink and a little refreshment for the next stage. I treated myself to a break here after a long ride and enjoyed the rustic ambience. In the courtyard, also called "The Forge", there is a restaurant with rustic food - ideal if you get a little hungry. The atmosphere is relaxed and the people here are friendly, which makes you feel welcome. In addition, overnight accommodation is offered if you want to treat yourself to a little more relaxation after a long day on the bike. It could be a little tidier in some places, but that also gives the place its charming, slightly chaotic character. A cozy stop to recharge your batteries before hitting the road again.

Camlough Lake is picturesquely nestled between the rolling hills of Slieve Gullion and the Ring of Gullion. Cycling along the narrow roads on the shore, you immediately feel the tranquility that emanates from the long stretch of water. The lake stretches for more than two kilometers and seems like a narrow, silent crack in the landscape - a peaceful place to take a short break or let your gaze wander over the water. I decided to take a little detour and cycled a little closer to the shore on a path. The water was almost still and reflected the range of hills that rise in the background. It may be a paradise for fishermen, but cyclists also enjoy the special atmosphere. The roads around the lake are not very busy and you can cycle in a relaxed manner without having to constantly pay attention to the traffic. One small criticism: some of the access roads are not well signposted, but if you look around a bit, you'll surely find a good place to get to the shore and enjoy the scenery.
