Cooley Peninsula Route

The Cooley Peninsula is a gift for cycling. Starting off in Medieval Carlingford village cycle down to Greenore and catch the ferry on the hour every hour to Greencastle. Or try the less known but equally stunning Balagan loop. Stop off in Kilwirra, the ruins of the church where the Knights Templar set up upon arrival in the peninsula. Stop in the beautiful Lily Finnegans for a refreshments, voted #1 pub in Louth. Upgrade to our amazing Ebikes and take on the Cooley hills effortlessly! Electric Bikes are life changing, still the exercise but a little help for those hills and distances.

Explore the Mourne mountains or the Cooley mountains behind the village. There is so many beautiful sights and scenes to take in on your adventure.
