아마그브라그 최고의 라이딩 경로

대부분 평탄하고 완전히 차량 통행이 없는 이 길은 한때 아일랜드 해로 석탄을 운송하는 생명선이었던 고요한 수로를 따라 아머와 다운 카운티의 중심부를 가로질러 구불구불 이어집니다. 잘 관리된 아스팔트나 고운 자갈 위를 달리면서, 울창한 녹색 제방, 역사적인 석조 다리, 그리고 지형의 고도 차이를 극복하는 18개의 수문 유적들에 둘러싸이게 될 것입니다. 거의 모든 종류의 자전거에 적합한 매끄러운 아스팔트와 주행하기 좋은 고운 자갈의 조합입니다.

빠른 서비스와 넓은 공간

Poyntzpass 남쪽의 잔잔한 운하 구간으로, 둑길이 좁은 물가를 따라 곧게 뻗어 있습니다. 강둑은 낮은 나무와 울타리로 약간 덮여 있어 구간에 친밀하고 푸른 인상을 줍니다. 물은 대부분 고요하며 탁 트인 농경지를 가로질러 직선을 이룹니다. 둑길에서 조용한 거리를 달리기에 이상적인, 고르고 교통이 없는 구간입니다.

Nice little cafe in the village of Scarva right alongside the Newry canal towpath, great for brekkie, lunch or just topping up the hydration.

Hollie Berrie is a good place for refreshments on the route at Scarva

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

The Newry Canal Path offers exactly what many cyclists want on a tour: a relaxed route that runs through green landscapes and is shielded from any city traffic for almost 25 km. The path is smooth and well maintained throughout, which makes it ideal for longer stretches without a break - you can really rack up the miles here and enjoy the peace and quiet of nature at the same time. A highlight is that the canal path is not only easy to ride, but also allows some charming glimpses of the surrounding area. The trees form a green roof over the path in places, and the silence is only occasionally interrupted by the rippling of the water or a passing bird. Here you have the feeling that with every meter you get further away from the noise of the city and instead find a little more nature. A good alternative for commuters and recreational cyclists alike to get to your destination stress-free or just switch off and let yourself drift.

The small town of Scarva, nestled between green meadows and the quiet canal, offers a welcome break on my bike tour through Northern Ireland. Here you cycle on well-maintained paths past historic bridges and small villages that give you the feeling that time has stood still. The British flags fluttering along the side of the road remind you that you are in a culturally special area - a detail that reflects the identity of the region. The route is easy to cycle, the surrounding landscape is gently rolling, which makes for pleasant cycling. The view of wide fields and rolling hills invites you to slow down now and then and take in the peace and quiet. A special feature of Scarva is the annual Orange Order March, which transforms the village into a kind of open-air stage once a year and keeps the traditions of this region alive.
