Description by the author

There is no denying the sheer beauty of this place, a 20.5-mile walkway through the bogs of southern Fermanagh. Just as important though is the fact that it is simply not a walk for the faint of heart.

It might be one you build up to, as its nickname of Stairway to Heaven is certainly well earned. That said, it’s a fantastic way to explore some of Ulster’s most incredible scenery without having to get your boots too muddy!

While you’re there: It’s a bit of a steep climb to the viewing point, but if the weather is in any way clear it offers some of the best scenery you could ever hope to find on this island.
