Quality Walk

Bann Boulevard - Portadown

The Bann Boulevard is the perfect place for a short walk or as a starting point for a much longer linear walk. The wide tarmac surface makes the path suitable for all users. The towpath is a shared use path and can be busy at times, however, cyclists should give way to pedestrians.

At this point you can cross the bridge and continue along the towpath to Knock Bridge and beyond or return along the same path back to the car park.
