If you want to get to Belfast city center without a car and stress, this is the right place.

The truncated round tower rises from afar, its massive structure still preserved up to 10.7 metres. Originally, the tower served not only as a spiritual place, but also offered a strategic view over the valley - a real advantage for spotting any Viking raids early on. The history of the nearby monastery, which is associated with St. Mochumma, is also interesting. It is said that the site was looted in 1130 and that the remains of a church were discovered near the tower as late as the 18th century. The beam holes inside suggest that the six floors were made of wood and offered a certain level of comfort.

The wave-shaped metal sculpture seems to blend gently into the landscape on the shores of Lough Neagh, as if it were merging with the water itself. In the background lies Ireland's largest lake, whose vastness and still surface exude a special sense of calm. The reflective surfaces of the sculpture catch the light and reflect it back - a play with the elements that subtly enlivens the surroundings. Here you can pause for a moment and enjoy the view. You might sit on a picnic blanket, letting your gaze wander over the glittering surface of the water while breathing in the fresh air. All around you, the nature reserve is lively but at the same time peaceful, and the sculpture is a reminder of how closely art and nature are connected here. A beautiful place to take in the impressions before continuing on your path.

The Castle has over 100 acres of ornamental lawns, peaceful woodlands and picturesque glens to discover. Dogs are not permitted within the gardens and café unless they are trained assistance dogs.

Heading towards Dromara is difficult from the very start. Easier start if heading towards Belfast and Ballynahinch.

Nestled in the picturesque setting of Lough Neagh lies the discovery center, a place of peace and wonder. As soon as you enter it becomes clear that this is no ordinary place. The architecture of the center nestles harmoniously into the surrounding landscape and opens up a view of the extensive lake. For those who are looking for relaxation after a long hike or just want to enjoy the beauty of nature, the discovery center offers just the thing. Every corner of the building is designed to be barrier-free, so everyone has the chance to experience this gem to the fullest. While browsing the gift shop, visitors will come across lovingly selected souvenirs crafted by local artisans and artists. Each piece tells a story and is a reminder of this special place on Lough Neagh. However, the highlight of the center is the café. Equipped with large panoramic windows, it offers breathtaking views over the shimmering lake. Here you can pause with a cup of tea or coffee, let your thoughts wander and enjoy the moment. The smell of freshly baked pastries fills the air, and the guests' quiet conversations mingle with the gentle sound of the water.
