Promising Centre

Travelled down from NI - we live very near to trails at Rostrevor and Castlewellan. It was a great day but there's not an awful lot to drag us back down. Needs a bit of distinctiveness to attract more riders.

What do you like?

Spectacular views over the 'Guinness' lake - just off the marked trails. You would need to know this - the guy in the centre told us about it. Good options on doing a few of the best segments by looping them and then moving on First time I've seen a deer next to a trail which is amazing considering the noise I make! Guys are VERY helpful down at trailhead - top fellas

What could be improved?

Probably needs to add a few more interesting segments to draw in punters from far and wide. Signage could be made simpler as navigation is a bit difficult with the territory looking very similar in parts. Perhaps some unique landmarks would help

Would you recommend?

*Yes*
