98 Magheramore Road, BT47, Londonderry
Been here?
This is a spacious forest parking area with some nearly flat spaces, streamside surroundings, picnic tables and excellent walks. The narrow access road has passing places, but the road is currently closed. The location is very quiet and peaceful, although there is no mobile network.

Road closed as of November 7, 2025. Not sure how temporary it is!Translating
A gem of a spot! We're on Starlink so the lack of signal isn't an issue for us. Nearly flat at the bottom end car park, bit of a squeeze for our motorhome, but managed it fine. Plenty of places to walk the dogs, take in nature, and experience a peaceful and calm spot. There are park benches and tables, but no bins. Will be back again for sure.
Very good spot. Quiet, beside a stream. A local invited us to continue farther to find a quieter parking area with picnic tables. After the lockable barriers, which remain open at night, cross the stone bridge. We spent one night there.Translating
Great spot! Very calm indeed, just the sound of water. There are some hikes available from there. picnic tables and plenty of room so you are sure to have a spot. Only « downside » is there is no network. Like mention in a previous comment, go further than you would think and you will arrive there.
As previous comments said, lovely and quiet, with the sound of the stream rushing by. Few visitors and no litter. I would give it five stars, but there is no network coverage on Vodafone, EE, or O2.Translating
Beautiful place to stop, plenty of space. Quiet and undisturbed. Go down to the end, further than you think, to the Trail Head car park over a narrow bridge (okay for VW Crafter) where there are a few fairly level spots, picnic tables, a stream and the start of some great walks. Park ranger turned up in the morning, 10am-ish, wasn't there for us and all well.
Nice quiet place. There are 4 parking areas. The entrance parking is fine but sloped. The overflow parking is overgrown but probably fine for a low vehicle. The trail head parking has very low hanging branches on entry and is very sloped. There is a small area just before the trail head which is flat with enough space for 2 vehicles. No signal here.
