About Stranisk
Rising above the foothills of the Sperrins, this 312-metre Hump offers a quiet, uncrowded perspective on the Londonderry and North Tyrone border. The terrain is characterized by rough moorland grazing, providing a short but honest pull for those looking to explore the lesser-trodden heights south of Feeny.

Did You Know?
- •The name is likely derived from the Irish 'Srath an Uisce', translating as the river-meadow of the water, which refers to the damp grazing land and burns that drain these northern slopes of the Sperrin Mountains.
- •The summit provides a clear line of sight south across the valley to the rounded profiles of Sawel Mountain and Meenard, the highest peaks in the main Sperrin range.
- •Its classification as a Hump indicates the hill has at least 100 metres of prominence, making it a more distinct and isolated viewpoint than its modest 312-metre elevation might suggest.
