Created by the Mourne Wall and dam, the Silent Valley Reservoir is the major source of water for County Down. Easy, well-marked paths wind around the lake, and there’s a coffee shop by the Silent Valley Information Centre. A shuttle bus takes visitors from the center to the top of nearby Ben Crom. It runs on weekends in May, June, and September, and daily in July and August.
