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 well-signposted mountain bike trails take you through dense forests and offer breathtaking views of Carlingford Lough and the Mourne Mountains. The descent from the Cloughmore Stone, a huge boulder that was transported here during the last ice age, is a particular highlight. However, some sections are technical and require a certain level of riding technique. The trails can become slippery in wet weather, so caution is advised. Another plus point is the proximity to the charming village of Rostrevor, where you can relax in one of the cafes after the tour.

There’s heaps to do when you visit Kilbroney park so bring a picnic, kids, dogs, bikes, walking boots and enjoy the day.

Fiddler’s Green was once used for local entertainment and festivals.

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.

From the Flagstaff Viewpoint you can enjoy a stunning view of the expansive landscape where the Newry River gently curves its way to Carlingford Lough. The view stretches down to the fjord where the land meets the water and the hills in the distance form a picturesque backdrop. The valley opens up between the lush green conifers and you can watch the landscape unfold below you. From up here, the roads and fields look like little veins and patches that tie the whole picture together. It is a place to linger and enjoy the silence - a haven of calm that makes you feel above it all.

The Viewpoint Trail takes you from Fiddlers Green through an enchanted landscape that takes you to the impressive Cloghmór Stone. The path is narrow and interspersed with moss-covered trees that create a mystical atmosphere, especially when the sun breaks through the dense branches. It is one of those trails that is best explored in dry conditions, as the ground can otherwise become quite slippery. Once at the top, you will be treated to stunning views over the water and the surrounding hills. The clear air and wide views invite you to pause for a moment and simply enjoy the moment. On the way back, you have the opportunity to wander through Fiddlers Green and soak up the peaceful atmosphere of this place. All along the path you will find rubbish bins to keep nature clean - a nice detail that shows respect for this place. When you look out over the valley, you will understand why this trail is a popular destination for hikers who want to leave the hustle and bustle behind and be inspired by nature.
