The views are stunning and the snow was exciting too

A charming path along the Ulster Canal Greenway. The best way to get out of the city to head over Rossmore Forest Park.

Emy Lough is a picturesque lake that makes a perfect spot to stop for a picnic or even a swim on those sunny days!

Known locally as the "Wee Abbey", Clones Abbey is a ruined monastery dating back to the 12th century. The original abbey was founded by St. Tigernach as early as the 6th century. However, the abbey was destroyed by fire not once, but four times during its history. In the 16th century, the abbey suffered once again during the suppression of monasteries and Protestant reformation under Henry VIII. Less than a hundred years later, it lay in ruin, although some solitary monks still lived here until the 18th century. Today, you can visit the crumbling walls and take a look at the interesting graveyard. The abbey is free to visit and you can access it any time.

On the banks of the Ulster Canal, Cortolvin Woods is a corner of nature in suburbia.

The Ulster Canal Greenway is now a lovely traffic free way to travel about Monaghan, but there are many reminders of its historic past. The Canal Stores are now a sports hall for the St Louis Convent School.

Glaslough is a cute village, full of character. It's name means ‘calm or green lake’ in Irish. You'll notice plenty of historical buildings as you pedal through and the Castle Leslie Estate is next to the village. Or even better, stop for a something to eat and drink.

There is a great view from the car park, but even better, park up your bike and take the short trail to the hiking viewpoint. There you can marvel at the panoramic views across County Fermanagh and County Monaghan. Take a seat in the oversized chair and enjoy. Especially lovely at sunrise and sunset.
