Route Description
Fully waymarked throughout this circular walking trail begins at the trail head in the farm yard and meanders through a mix of woodland and open farmland before crossing the main drive and reaching Blessingbourne’s beautiful Lough Fadda. Simply follow the purple woodland walk waymarkers from the trail head.
On mostly wide surfaced paths, this gentle trail offers unique opportunities for exploration through parts of Blessingbourne Estate which have been previously out of reach to walkers. Please be aware of mountain bikers using some sections of this trail in the opposite direction.
