Begin with a journey
The Ulster American Folk Park, near Omagh, follows emigration from Ulster to North America. Give the museum enough time to develop that story, including the interpretation of the lives and journeys involved. Check the current visitor information for the areas available and any special programme you want to see.
An evening looking up
OM Dark Sky Park and Observatory in Davagh Forest offers a different reason to come to Tyrone. Look at the current experiences and booking options before choosing your date. An observatory visit has its own interest, while a clear view of the night sky depends on the weather.
Join the plans carefully
Omagh and Davagh are separate locations, so look at the actual connection before fitting them into the same day. You may prefer to give each a visit of its own. Choose accommodation that supports the evening you have booked, with time for a meal and a straightforward return. A history-led day and an evening at the observatory need different kinds of time.
