Slieve Gullion


🗻Slieve Gullion is Ireland's Mountain of Mystery. Rising some 576m above the surrounding countryside. The mountain itself lies at the centre of a ring of hills – the Ring of Gullion. The views of Croslieve, Slievebrack and Mullaghbane Mountains are just exceptional



🧚‍♀️The Giant's Lair trail is a magical living storybook. Follow the trail with miniature doorways, exciting dragons and fearsome giants and wicked witches, all inspired by legend and mythical folklore. The trail is short at just under a mile but takes you up some hills and into corners so I recommend a good backpack carrier or baby sling. It starts and ends in the car park and is easily found.


🛝The play park is just fabulous. It’s big and caters to all ages, with a huge tower and tube slide, a specialist toddler area, a zip line, and even features a maze and a wishing chair.


🚗There is a scenic car drive that takes you up and around the Mountain to see the fabulous views.


ℹ️Car parking is free, accessible toilets and baby change, picnic benches and a cafe Synge and Byrne is onsite if you don’t want to bring a picnic.


📍 89 Drumintee Rd, Meigh, Newry BT35 8SW
