Peace
In Castlewellan Park you’ll find the Peace Maze, one of the world's largest permanent hedge mazes representing the path to a peaceful future for Northern Ireland. Planted in 2000 with community involvement, visitors can attempt to solve their way to the peace bell in the centre of the maze.
The hedge is comprised of 6,000 yew trees, many of which were planted by people from all over Northern Ireland during December of 2000.
It covers 11,000 square meters with a hedge length of over 3,550 meters, a path length of 3,147 meters, and a hedge height of 1.5 meters, which is lower than the usual hedge maze height, done so to facilitate communication and interaction between visitors in different areas of the paths.
The path to peace is complex.
