Thirty-two walks to explore the Mournes, taking in rugged coast, high mountains, forest parks and low-level farmlands. They lead you along the mighty Mourne Wall as it pursues a rollercoaster route over the mountains. They also lead you to quiet corners where the history, heritage, wildlife and stillness of the area can be enjoyed. They look formidable, yet the Mournes are a very compact range of mountains. A tough walker could traverse them in a day, while an enquiring walker could spend years trying to get to know them throughout the changing seasons. This guidebook offers a selection of walking routes, from the coast to the highest peaks, allowing you to explore and appreciate this special place. The routes lie within the Mourne Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which embraces not only the Mountains of Mourne, but also Slieve Croob and the north-east coastline.
