Thanks for the welcome guys, salt island would be interesting as im from Portaferry and have only explored some of the islands around the lough. Currently living in Dromore which has favoured my hiking as its only a short drive to Newcastle. I know alot of people is against it but would really love to try the Mourne wall this year.  From what i read i believe large groups of people are pushed to avoid doing this trek, could anyone give me some details on this route, where to begin etc.

Start a new thread in the meets section and see if anyone is interested. I'd keen to give it another rattle.
