6의 미나키란가지 명소 & 주요 장소

거친 자갈길은 더 큰 Lough Eske의 동쪽에 있는 도로 시작 지점에서 Lough Fad와 이 지역의 다른 다섯 개의 작은 호수까지 이어집니다. 흥미로운 식물들이 자생하는 습지대 황무지를 건너게 될 것입니다.

Barnesmore Gap 위로 1,480피트(451m) 높이 솟아 있는 Croaghonagh는 정상의 기반 시설에도 불구하고 가치 있는 목표물입니다. 도로 반대편에서 Croaghonagh를 마주보고 있는 봉우리는 약간 더 높은 Croaghconnellagh입니다. 불과 약 13,000년 전만 해도 거대한 빙하가 아래 계곡을 차지하고 있었다는 사실을 생각하면 놀랍습니다.

From here over the Lough you can see St Patrick's Purgatory which is an ancient pilgrimage site that is suggested to have not been interrupted for fifteen hundred years, with it continuing in the present day. Its importance in medieval times is clear due to its present on maps all over Europe as early as the 15th century. It was the only Irish site designated on Martin Behaim's world map of 1492.

The Leghowney loop is beautiful and well off the beaten track. If you are looking for a place to run where you're unlikely to bump into anyone else, this could be it. It is mostly on forest trails which open out to rural views with the sea in the distance. It starts and ends in Leghowney where you can find a picnic area, toilets and a children's playground at the start of the waymarked trail.

It is thought that a church has been sited here since the 6th century. Little is known about St Caireall, but the ruined church was definitely present in 1399 as it was recorded in Archbishop Colton's Visitation of the Derry Diocese. Just up the road is a white painted, tumbling down schoolhouse. It is believed to be built with stones from the church.
