Steep but short stretch. Nice for photography

Newtownstewart is a historic village with Baronscourt Castle as a notable attraction. Nestled in the scenic Sperrin Mountains, it offers outdoor activities like hiking and boasts a heritage-rich atmosphere with well-preserved architecture.

Formed from a glacial overflow, Barnes Gap is truly breathtaking. On your way up, don't forget to take in the spectacular views. The gap cuts through the east-west crest line of the southern Sperrin Mountains ridge, between the hills of Mullaghbane and Mullaghbolig.

Part of the Sawel Cycle Route, Corramore Road boasts fine views over the Glenelly Valley. A patchwork of fields and rolling hills stretch out beneath you.

With Barnes Top and Knockanbane Mountain to the east and Sawel Mountain to the south east, Sperrins Road carves through the landscape with cracking views all around. There is some descent climbing to get here but it's worth it.

Gortin Glen Forest Park is full of good trails and beautiful trees. There is a 5 mile scenic forest drive which is signposted and takes in all of the best views. With waterfalls, resident sika deer and a cafe at the centre of the park it makes an ideal detour from the road.

Newtownstewart Bridge spans the Strule River on its way north to meet Fairy Water and Owenkillew.

Pedaling along the Dunbreen Road you'll be rewarded with perfect countryside views. It is especially lovely when the gorse is flowering. Breath in deeply to enjoy its rich coconutty scent.
