Slieve Gullion

Who Slaughtered Steven Gray In The Slieve Gullion Area?

Steven Gray has been found murdered at Meigh, near Newry, but it is believed he was killed elsewhere. Even our best team of investigators have uncovered very few leads and thus need your help to solve the murder.
  • The Slieve Gullion Whodunit Hunt starts at Derrymore House, Bessbrook, just to the West of Newry off the A1, and ends nearby.
  • This is a self-guided, circular driving murder mystery trail.
  • You’ll see super mountain scenery as you drive around the Ring Of Gullion area. Also learn about the area’s past linen industry, visit a National Trust property, a graveyard where the brother of Robert The Bruce is buried, a ruined castle, an ancient tomb dating back thousands of years… and LOTS more!
  • The driving route is about 40 miles, or 64 km.
  • There is about 3 miles / 5 km of walking in total, spread across numerous clue stops along the route.
  • This is a deluxe Whodunit Hunt with nearly 40 clues in a bumper-sized booklet, so we suggest that you set aside much of a full day (around 6 hours) to cover this murder mystery trail.
  • Accessibility – it is mostly fairly flat where all of the clues are to be found, however one clue has an inclined path to a field; it is recommended to take sensible shoes.
  • There are several bars, cafes, and convenience stores along the route for refreshment.
  • Note: in April 2024 a parking charge of £5 was introduced into Slieve Gullion Forest Park. While it is in theory possible to avoid this with additional walking, for 6+ hours of investigative fun we think that this fee on top of the price of the Whodunit booklet is still incredible value!
