A story from Carlingford Lough · ~45 min from Warrenpoint
One lough, two shores
In short: Carlingford Lough is shared between County Down in Northern Ireland and County Louth in the Republic of Ireland, with the Mournes on one shore and the Cooley Mountains on the other.
From the greenway you can see the Mournes, the Cooley Peninsula and Carlingford Lough all at once. Roads and borders split the two sides, but the water has always brought them together.
