8의 카모웬가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Carrigans Road is a scenic lane running parallel to the River Strule and marking the western edge of the Sperrins AONB. It forms part of the North West Trail, a cycle route through counties Donegal, Tyrone, Fermanagh, Leitrim, and Sligo in the North West of Ireland. Carrigans Road is an excellent alternative to the busier A5 and links north Omagh with Newtownstewart.

The Lover's Retreat is a beautiful spot, home to nesting herons. Some say it's name is taken from the lovers who used to hide within the branches of the weeping willow. There is also often a coffee van here which adds to its allure for cyclists pedaling through Omagh. It is also popular with dog walkers so be sure to keep an eye out for four legged friends.

As you pedal along the bike path tracing the Camowen River, keep an eye out for the water rushing over the weir.

Omagh is the county town of County Tyrone which plays host to a number of festivals and events throughout the year. A market town, there are plenty of places to stop to eat or drink and you can't fail to notice the twin spires of Sacred Heart Church.

Drumragh Old Church is a real hidden gem. The old ruins and ancient graveyard and worth a moment of exploration. Alice Milligan was buried here in 1953. She was a political activist in the Gaelic League, and a poet. She was born in 1865 and the inscription on her headstone reads; 'She loved no other place but Ireland'.
