The Mourne Wall The Mourne Wall is a dry stone wall measuring in length that crosses fifteen summits and was constructed to define and protect the catchment area purchased by Belfast Water Commissioners in the late 19th century. Conservation Following a fundraising drive in , the National Trust purchased nearly of land in the Mournes, which included a part of Slieve Donard at and nearby Slieve Commedagh at , the second-highest mountain in the area.

As I mentioned this path is around 5km and will take you past the Blue Lough to the Binnian-Lamagan col Binnian to your left and Lamagan to your right.
Be prepared to take a few breaks along the way and watch your footing. We tackled Meelbeg and Meelmore in one day and they are relatively easy climbs, so are very doable for novices. We began at Ott car park and climbed Slieve Loughshannagh m initially, before continuing on to Meelbeg m and then Meelmore m. The climb to the base of Loughshannagh can be quite mucky in places, but after this the terrain is very accessible.
Finally, we have Slieve Muck at m. We actually climbed this one at the start of the year for an evening hike for sunset and the clue is in the name — it is mucky! There is a trig marker at the top and from here you can see Cranfield beach, a peak of Ben Crom reservoir and on the way up you get great views of Spelga Reservoir.
The views from each of these mountains is spectacular and I highly recommend giving them a go. Hiking boots are tougher and also usually waterproof, which you will be glad of.
