Hills at KilbroneyGhann - Kilbroney Valleys

The Ghann - Kilbroney Valleys are two valleys cutting into upland terrain and opening out into a narrow coastal plain adjoining Carlingford Lough. There are large tracts of coniferous forestry on the east facing slopes of Kilbroney Valley and Lower Ghann River, with pockets of deciduous trees along the valley bottom. Kilbroney Park provides attractive parkland. There is expanding urbanisation along the coastal plain with the growth of Newry, Rostrevor and Warrenpoint resulting in ribbon development stretching up the valley.
