1904-22년에 건설된 마운 월(Mourne Wall)은 원래 벨파스트의 수원지인 워터 저수지(Water Reservoir) 주변의 유역(36km²)을 보호하기 위한 것이었습니다. 현대적인 정수 처리 시설 덕분에 오늘날에는 더 이상 중요하지 않습니다. 35km 길이의 이 벽은 가공되지 않은 화강암으로 만들어졌으며, 북아일랜드에서 가장 높은 슬리브 돈나드(Slieve Donard)를 포함한 마운 산맥의 15개 봉우리를 넘으며 아름다운 하이킹 코스를 제공합니다. 어떤 사람들은 하루 만에 이 벽을 따라 걷는 도전을 합니다.

The Duck Pond feels like a calm secret waiting to be discovered. Recommended by hikers and tucked into a protected area, it’s a gentle spot where water glimmers among reeds and mountains frame the quiet mirror below.

Slieve Loughshannagh is one of the quieter summits in the Mourne Mountains, but it rewards hikers with wide, open views over Silent Valley, Slieve Binnian, and the western Mournes. The climb isn’t too demanding, and the summit has a peaceful, windswept feel, making it a lovely spot to pause and take in the rugged beauty of the landscape.

The Mourne Wall is one of the most iconic landmarks of the Mourne Mountains, stretching for 35 kilometers across 15 summits. Built by hand in the early 20th century to enclose the Silent Valley Reservoir catchment area, it’s an impressive feat of craftsmanship and endurance. Today, hikers crossing its path are struck not only by its scale and history but also by the way it weaves naturally into the dramatic mountain landscape. Following the wall offers some of the best ridge walks in the Mournes, making it both a cultural treasure and a perfect guide for exploring these rugged peaks.

Silent Valley Reservoir, nestled in the Mourne Mountains, is a peaceful retreat surrounded by sweeping granite peaks and heathered slopes. Built in the early 20th century to supply water to Belfast and much of County Down, the reservoir combines striking engineering with natural beauty. Visitors can stroll along well-kept paths, admire the Victorian-style dam and impressive Mourne Wall, or simply enjoy the quiet atmosphere by the lakeshore.

This section of the path is not maintained at all. It’s overgrown with high vegetation, thorny plants, and hidden holes. The terrain is quite challenging and can be dangerous, with boggy patches and rocks concealed in the tall grass. Take care and be cautious when walking here.
