DIRECTIONS (Walking)

The North Shore Path provides a stunning walk from Annalong Harbour northwards to the Springwell Port (approx. 1.4km) with a breath-taking landward backdrop of the stunning Mourne Mountains to complement your sea view. Enjoy your walk!

History

Back in the 1980’s, LEDU (Local Enterprise Development Unit) & IDB in conjunction with the ACE scheme ran a project to create shore paths south & north of Annalong, providing paid work for some of our local unemployed [citation needed]. This was built on over the years following and during 2020/21 much work was done to improve and make both shore paths safer and more shoreline armouring. This was led by the ACDA (Annalong Community Development Association) chaired by Davy McCauley.
