Build your County Down day
Suggested stops include Hillsborough Castle and Gardens, Newcastle, the Mourne Mountains, Silent Valley or Spelga Dam, Rostrevor and Warrenpoint. These are possibilities, rather than a promise to visit every stop.
Hillsborough: allow time for a castle or garden visit if this is a priority. Tickets, opening times and the length of your visit affect the rest of the route.
Newcastle and the Mournes: enjoy the meeting of mountains and coast, with photo stops and time to explore at a pace that suits your group.
Silent Valley or Spelga Dam: discuss a scenic stop suited to the weather, access and your walking preferences.
Rostrevor and Warrenpoint: these can form part of a southern County Down route when the available time allows.
We agree a practical plan before travel, allowing for a lunch break and your return deadline. A Dublin finish can be discussed and quoted separately; it is not included in the standard eight-hour Belfast return rate.
