Corlea Trackway Visitor Centre

Highlight • Historical Site

The Corlea Trackway / Bóthar Chorr Liath is an incredible piece of history. It was constructed in 148–147 BC from oak planks. An 18m stretch of the Iron Age road can be seen in the visitors centre here.

Corlea Boardwalks

Highlight • Trail

Boardwalks guide walkers and other trail users across the bogs at Corlea. This is a remarkable site, home to a preserved Iron Age road that sank into the peat not long after it was constructed. Keep your eyes out for curlews and common lizards while on the trails here.

Corlea Bog Walk: Blue Loop

Highlight • Trail

The Corlea Bog Walk Blue Loop sets out from the Corlea Trackway Visitor Centre and explores the area's natural bogland. It was here in 1984 that workers from the nearby power station discovered a remarkable Iron Age ceremonial road, thought to have been built in 148BC. Made from oak planks, the road sank into the bog only years after its construction and has been preserved ever since. There are two walking loops here, the shorter Blue Loop and the longer Red Loop.
