The Davagh Forest Trails are located in the stunning Sperrin Mountains and offer some of Ireland's most exciting cross-country mountain biking. With mountain biking trails to suit all abilities as well as a pleasant riverside walking trail, Davagh Forest has it all. There is a skills course, pump track and bike wash as well as toilets and changing facilities located at the trailhead.

We did the scenic driving route through the Sperrin Mountains, we were blessed with beautiful weather and could see for miles around. The road is not the best, but is ok if you take it steady; (have your wits about you with other drivers).

A hidden gem amongst Dungannons' several notorious and downright ghastly disasters!! Meander through the vast wilderness of pathways whilst inhaling the intoxicating taste of Dog Fowl kindly donated by someone short of a plastic bag!!???? Having said all that, at least the present Covid Virus situation has threw up a massive bonus by not having a herd of Skeletons racing around the park for 5km every Saturday Morning disrupting the routing of the "Regular Users"????

Huge forest park with several wild walking trails, play garden, picnic area and trails to walk during the visit. If you like wild nature you definitely would enjoy a time spent here. Comfortable to walk across all places, majority of trails were recently renovated. You can bring your dog with you for a long walk

Fantastic location for woodland trail walks with the dog or more sedate way marked routes on even footpaths of varying distances or follow the 5 mile ‘scenic drive’ Wonderful newly refurbished play park for under 12’s, clean and accessible toilet block close by and usually a food and hot drink vendor on a Sunday. You can easily spend 2-3 hours here, even more on a dry day, take a picnic and head for the hills!

We visited The Argory after it was the first Northern Ireland property to reopened following the relaxing of the "lock-down". I was surprised to be able to book tickets online for the five of us as I expected demand to be high. (The only way at the moment to visit National Trust properties is to have tickets which are booked online.) We were courteously greeted by all staff. The number of visitors to the house at any one time is limited and you need to book a slot at the reception. There is hand sanitizer at the reception and at the entry and exit of the house. Only the downstairs of the house was open. We were provided with a laminated information sheet as it is a self guided tour although there are people there if you have any questions. The cafe and toilets were opened but we didn't use these. There is a one way system in force and on the whole most people adhered to it. The grounds were beautiful - still well kept and full of colour and fragrance. We enjoyed a relaxing walk by the beautiful river Blackwater. We felt comfortable with the safety arrangements that they have in place and would recommend to others but remember to book online first!
