Local access and parking details
This is the walking approach to Darach, the Guardian of the Sperrins sculpture on Mullaghcarn Mountain, rather than a road you can drive along to reach the sculpture. The forest park lies about six miles from Omagh.
Before you go
Use the signposted Mullaghcarn walking trail and allow for the climb and return to the same car park.
