Thursday 26th October.
The day started off a little grey but we decided to climb Slieve Muck, (The Hill of the Pig) which turned out to be quite a slog. However the sun came out and it started blowing a gale which was a real help as it blew us up the hill!
When we reached the top there were superb views over Doan, Lough Shannagh, the Silent Valley and Slieve Binnian, making it well worth the climb.
Had our lunch sheltering behind the Mourne Wall out of the wind which was still going strong. Took some pictures of the view which I stitched together into a panorama.
Eventually made our way back down to the car again by late afternoon and drove back down the road to Kilkeel and on to Cranfield as the sun was going down.
Super day out!
