Trails such as the Ulster Way and walking routes through the Ring of Gullion reveal many of these environments, while landscapes including the Ring of Gullion National Landscape, Slieve Gullion, the Armagh drumlins, and the Blackwater Valley showcase some of Northern Ireland's most distinctive natural environments.

Together, these routes and landscapes reveal the character of the county while providing opportunities to explore at a slower pace through self-guided travel and independent exploration.
