What To Expect
Inch Abbey
A historic monument that doubled as a location for Game of Thrones. The ruins of the ancient Cistercian Abbey can be reached with an easy five minute stroll from our Inch Abbey station. You can explore the ruins, take in the views, and in the summer it’s a lovely spot for a picnic. It was also used as a location for Game of Thrones! See where Robb Stark’s camp was located in season one – it’s where he was proclaimed the King of the North. On certain dates in the summer, a living history monk will be on-site to provide guided tours of the Abbey.
Slieve Patrick Statue
Visit the statue of St Patrick at the top of Slieve Patrick. Construction began of this statue in 1932, the 1500th anniversary of St. Patrick's landing at the Slaney. From the top of the Statue there are excellent views across the surrounding countryside and Strangford Lough. Parking is provided at the entrance; there are no footpaths so sensible shoes are advisable.
