Reviews
"Lovely and peaceful. recommend the long river walk across three bridges."
"A very nice and peaceful walking area through woodland and beside the Whitewater River. There are three walking trails which consist of one "easy" route and two "moderate" difficulty routes. If you have children with you, I recommend that you don't let them run on ahead because there are some steep drops directly into the river. Car parking was plentiful and free. The Woodland Trust have also placed signs to help drivers park in the correct car park. We visited on a very windy autumn's day but found that the woodland offered plenty of protection from the wind. Thankfully we saw no dog mess or litter, which is a real pleasure nowadays. We were also fortunate enough to see Robins, Chaffinches and Dipper on our visit although the Red Squirrels remained elusive. Overall, I would recommend visiting here if you are in the area and if you enjoy peace and quiet."
"Sometime last year we were lucky enough to stay at a B&B in Wales and in conversation with a lady from the Woodland Trust who mentioned they were trying to buy the land for Mourne Park. Today we visited the fruits of those labours and were grateful that the negotiations were fruitful. Well constructed paths as well as being well signed but just be aware of the possibility of the odd golf ball from the driving range FORE! I must for the itinerary in the coming years"
"A beautiful place to walk , not too long, not too steep , very quiet , walking beside the crystal clear water of the river .. wonderful"
"A gorgeous spot for a walk. Great paths and signage, the rivet is beautiful and it is so nice to see areas of conservation that the trust are trying to protect. Go early to avoid crowds."
