Down District is a place of outstanding natural beauty, with a rich history, extending from the shores of Strangford Lough to the Mourne Mountains. There are several walks in the Lecale area which take in public footpaths and roads. Most of the paths are walkable without difficulty. However, good waterproof footwear is advisable as some stretches can get quite muddy. The countryside and coast of Co. Down is one of the most important breeding grounds for birds in Ireland with an abundance of flora and fauna to enthuse the naturalist. With such natural beauty and places of interest on our doorstep, there's no better place to get out and have fun Walking our Way.
