Carlingford and the Cooley Peninsula will be showcased to audiences across the country

The beauty, history and outdoor spirit of Carlingford and the Cooley Peninsula will be showcased to audiences across the country when RTÉ’s Nationwide travels to County Louth.

Carlingford’s unique combination of medieval history, dramatic mountain scenery and outdoor adventure will take centre stage as Nationwide visits one of Ireland’s best-preserved medieval towns.

The programme will feature a visit to Carlingford Adventure Centre, one of Ireland’s top destinations for water sports and outdoor activities. Beyond the town’s historic walls, the Cooley Mountains and scenic walking trails offer another way to experience the area’s natural beauty.

Nationwide will meet Carlingford native Clodagh McKevitt, who shares her passion for nature and local history through guided countryside walks.

Presenter Anne Cassin also explores two of the town’s most iconic landmarks, the impressive King John’s Castle and the historic Ghan House, one of Carlingford’s oldest surviving dwellings.
