The moderate walk derives its name from the famous South Armagh Poets, Art McCumhaigh, Patrick MacAliondain and Seamus Mor MacMurphy. It passes through Creggan Churchyard, O’Neill Burial Vault and Roches Castle.

This walk starts at Creggan Churchyard where the poets are buried and covers a distance of 8 miles. Follow signs out of Newry for Camlough then signs for Crossmaglen. Continue toward Crossmaglen until you reach a sign for Creggan. Turn left and continue for approximately 250 yards until you reach Creggan Parish Church on the Right Hand Side.
