Carnagh Forest 🌳 📍Keady, Co. Armagh A well-sized forest with plenty of space to explore its trails and lakes, yet compact enough not to get lost if you follow the main loops. There are several route options, from short 1-mile strolls to longer 4-mile+ circuits. We followed the longest boundary trail which took around 1 hour, weaving through tall conifers, mossy banks and quiet gravel paths. The trails are wide, easy underfoot and perfect for a relaxed wander. It’s a peaceful forest with very little road noise, making it a great escape if you aren't too far away. While there is a sign for dogs to be on lead, most others were off (owners did put back on to pass), however we only passed a couple of people. Expect quiet trails, a few little off-shoot paths to explore, and lovely forest scenery. 🏠Facilities: -Small parking area -Children's play park 👍Pros: -Quiet, peaceful atmosphere -Some water for paddling -Easy terrain and wide paths -Circular layout with little navigation required 👎Cons: -Not many bins -No toilets -Quite a bit of poop 🐶Our Ratings: Cleanliness 3/5 Space 4/5 Quietness 3/5 Off lead 4/5 Fun 4/5 🌻 Reactive Friendly: Yes to a degree.
