Slieve Gullion

| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Another view from the slopes of Slieve Gullion, this time looking East at the Mourne Mountains.
The Ring of Gullion is a unique geological landform, (a ring dyke), not found anywhere else in the British Isles. The heather clad bulk of Slieve Gullion itself takes its name from the encircling ring of lower rugged hills.
Rich wildlife habitats of heath, bog and woodland contrast with the neatly patterned fields and ladder farms.
Slieve Gullion's reputation as Ireland's mountain of mystery arises from its rich associations with Irish legends and myths...More
Thanks for your looking,
Damien. |
