Cabin Wood is an ancient woodland of 12 hectares, featuring a mix of woodland and grassland habitats. The site is home to a variety of flora and fauna, including veteran trees, wildflowers, and a range of bird species. A network of walking trails allows visitors to explore the woodland, which is particularly stunning during the spring when the bluebells are in bloom.
Called here when we visited the Tullyhogue Fort down the road from here. Has a nice path along the river for a lovely quiet walk amongst the trees. You can see killymoon Castle across the river. The walk itself is not sign posted at all, as it took us a short time to find it. The lane up to it is very bumpy, and the carpark would have about ten car parking spaces. We only seen one bin just at the entrance to the walk. Great place to bring your dog. There are no toilet facilities at all.
Beautiful deciduous wood and river trail on the edge of Cookstown. It's located just off the large roundabout for Stewartstown, on the B520 Tullywiggan Road. As soon as you exit the roundabout, there is a turn into a lane on the left. The turn is just before a high sandstone wall and a bus stop. The short, potholed lane leads to a carpark and the start of the trail. There are four trails and loops that follow the Ballinderry river and Killymoon river. Some of the walk is through woods, some on high, open ground that has lovely views of Killymoon castle, Cookstown , the rivers and countryside. The whole walk will take about an hour.
This isnt a big wood but it is a special place. A Woodland Trust managed site, it is well laid out and signage is improving. It runs down onto the River and has views of Killymoon Castle. A simple, easy walk you could easily spend a couple of hours here.
Beautiful tranquill walk along the Ballinderry river and through the woods.. thoroughly recommend this place just on the edge of town..
