The Mourne Mountains in County Down are the highest range in Northern Ireland — Slieve Donard at 850 metres rises from the sea near Newcastle and on a clear day the Isle of Man, the Scottish coast and Snowdonia are all visible from its summit. Silent Valley reservoir sits in a bowl of the mountains below a dam that took 16 years to build. Carlingford Lough on the southern border with the Republic is a drowned glacial valley of extraordinary beauty.
