Castlewellan Forest Park

Castlewellan Forest Park offers gentle walks around the castle grounds, one of the world's largest hedge mazes, the Peace Maze (entry free), and, from March to October, trout fishing in its lovely lake (three-day license and permit £9.50). There's also a network of mountain-bike trails – see www.mountainbikeni.com for details. Bike hire is available from Life Adventure Centre.
