에덴모어 최고의 라이딩 경로

Poyntzpass 남쪽의 잔잔한 운하 구간으로, 둑길이 좁은 물가를 따라 곧게 뻗어 있습니다. 강둑은 낮은 나무와 울타리로 약간 덮여 있어 구간에 친밀하고 푸른 인상을 줍니다. 물은 대부분 고요하며 탁 트인 농경지를 가로질러 직선을 이룹니다. 둑길에서 조용한 거리를 달리기에 이상적인, 고르고 교통이 없는 구간입니다.

Unveiled in Sept 2023 Tom Dunn’s legacy as the local hedge school master and as a leading United Irishman meant he was known locally as the ‘Peasant Patriot’. He knew the power of education and the inclusive nature of his teaching to both Catholics and Protestants through his hedge school and evening recitations of scholarly books, enlightened the poor and oppressed. As a testament to his life, emphasising how he played a pivotal role in guiding local communities towards a more integrated, cohesive and shared society, a series of intergenerational hedge school workshops were held this summer which paid tribute to Dunn and his pivotal role as a cross community educator and leader. Nice place to take a break and watch village life go by.

Start of a beautiful path

The perfect meeting spot to start any run in this area. From this point you can head either into Rostrevor village, out towards Killowen, into Kilbroney park or head north alongside the river.

This cycle and walking route from the Bann Bridge in Portadown to the Town Hall in Newry is a 20 mile trip on part of route 9 of the National Cycle Network. The route follows the towpath on the western bank of the, now non-navigable, Newry Canal. Here's a bit about the Canals history. Built to transport coal from Coalisland in County Tyrone to Dublin via Lough Neagh, Portadown, Newry and the Irish Sea, the Newry Canal was opened in 1742. It operated for almost 200 years until it fell into disuse following the growth of the railway network. Frequent interpretation boards along the way give information about the history of the canal. You will also find lots of art pieces along the route including Sustrans commissioned Millennium Mileposts and a series of pieces which reflect the former work and nature of the Newry Canal.

Affectionately known as Swan Lake, the reservoir has a lovely tarmac path all the way around. Perfect for a run or stroll or a cycle with the kids.

Beautiful spot!
