Highlights of County DownAn area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
Strangford Lough is the largest inlet of water in the British Isles. As a protected body of water there is a large amount of wildlife. It has over 300 tiny islands and is a perfect place for kayaking and an island picnic.
County Down is known for its ‘drumlins', small, low, rounded hills that resemble a basket of eggs.
The Mourne Mountains in the south of the county are mystical, magical, and beautiful.
County Down is an unspoilt area, and definitely the ‘road less traveled'.
