The "Magnetic Hill", Gortin Road, Omagh

If you stop the car here (coming from left to right) it will run up the hill, but it is thought that the surrounding ground give you the impression that the slope runs the opposite way. Can be quite hazardous stopping here now as the traffic can be very fast coming round the bend.
