1. Marble Arch Caves Global Geopark Florencecourt
The Marble Arch Caves are a series of natural limestone caves located near the village of Florencecourt in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The caves are named after the nearby Marble Arch, a natural limestone arch at the upstream end of Cladagh Glen under which the Cladagh River flows. The caves are formed from three rivers draining off the northern slopes of Cuilcagh mountain, which combine underground to form the Cladagh. On the surface, the river emerges from the largest karst resurgence in Ireland, and one of the largest in the United Kingdom. At 11.5 kilometres the Marble Arch Caves form the longest known cave system in Northern Ireland, and the karst is considered to be among the finest in the British Isles.

From the ice age to the chippy: The Lough Neagh Pollan

Around world there is an exclusive list of rare and most sought after foods that include meats, spices, fungi, fish eggs, melons, chocolate, saliva, yes, you heard me right, saliva, and even precious metals.
If you live around the shores of Lough Neagh your staple diet probably consisted of the famous Lough Neagh eel but a trip to a local chip shop located in Toome will allow you to order another species of fish that has graced our local pallets and is one that has survived the last ice age; the Lough Neagh Pollan. It is species that is so important scientists believe it could help unlock the secrets of our continued global battle with climate change.
The fish is a glacial relict of an Alaskan-Siberian whitefish species and is not found anywhere in Western Europe outside of Ireland. Although they are found in 4 other locations in Ireland they are known to be extinct or in serious decline in those areas. The only remaining abundant population of Pollan is in Lough Neagh.
