Sculpture of a giant made from wood, great fun for the kids, but it’s pretty steep getting up there for little ones.

This beautiful lake situated in the heart of the Sperrins countryside is a fantastic location for a walk. The footpath is surrounded by heathland and wildflowers along with views of the surrounding rolling hills. Car parking is available and there is a picnic area, too.

From this viewpoint you gain spectacular views of the Sperrins mountain range. Mullagharn is the most southerly peak resulting in a great perspective to take in the rest of the range.

This is a round trip hike to the summit of Mullaghcarn. Once at the top you are rewarded with views of the Sperrin Mountains.
