Mourne Way
The Mourne Way starts at Newcastle visitor information centre and heads for Tollymore Forest Park and the 10m-high Cascade Falls. A section following the Shimna River leads to the Trassey Track, one of the busiest walkers' routes into the Mournes. The path passes beneath the steep northern slopes of Slieve Meelmore and around the northwestern base of Slieve Meelbeg to reach Fofanny Reservoir. A road section leads to Ott Mountain car park from where begins the ascent of Butter Mountain (500m), the highest point of the route, with fantastic views over the northwestern Mournes.
