Newry Greenway

The embankment separating the Newry Ship Canal and the Newry River known as the Middlebank has been adapted to provide an extension link to the 30kms Newry Canal Trail from Portadown to Newry. It runs between Newry's Albert Basin and the Victoria Lock - a distance of 5.7 kms. Eventually, it will be extended across the Border to link with the existing Omeath - Carlingford Greenway thus providing a motor vehicle free walking and cycling corridor from Portadown to Carlingford.
