the tain way

This walk is named after the legendary "Tain Bo Cuailgne" (The Cattle Raid of Cooley), which involved the exploits of Cuchulain, the Ulster warrior hero known as "The Hound of Ulster." The route from the village of Ravensdale to the historic and picturesque medieval town of Carlingford and back gives spectacular views across Carlingford Lough and takes in the Cooley Mountains and the wooded valleys of the Cooley Peninsula.
