Glenveagh National Park & Castle
is the premier visitor attraction in
Donegal. The castle, built in 1869, is set amongst
beautifully maintained gardens, and offers magnificent mountain
views, raised boglands, and tremendous lakes & woodlands across
the 16,000 acres of National Park.
Donegal Town is a historic town,
home of the O’Donnell Clan and
Donegal Castle, and is situated just
on the edge of Donegal Bay. The centre of town, known locally as
‘The Diamond’, is surrounded by bustling cafes, shops, and bars.
Mount Errigal, the highest mountain in Donegal, stands at 2,464
feet in a majestic position amongst the bog land, overlooking
Dunlewey Lough and the mysterious Poison Glen.
Dunlewey Lakeside Centre is a unique, quaint opportunity to
visit a traditional Irish Homestead. Our guided tour brings us back
in time to the middle of the last century and even provides us with
a traditional tweed weaving demonstration.
Dunfanaghy is a picturesque seaside village located at the head
of Sheephavan Bay. The village is
renowned for it’s lovely holiday
atmosphere and the friendly
‘buzz’ during the summer
months.
Killybegs Harbour has long been acknowledged as Ireland’s
leading fishing port, and a stroll along the pier gives a chance to
admire the fishing boats, net menders, and perhaps even catch a
glimpse of the seals.
Slieve League Sea Cliffs are said to be the highest and one
of the finest marine cliffs in the whole of Europe, and with a six
hundred metre drop down into the wild Atlantic waves below they
create a breathtaking, spectacular view.
Ardara is a designated Heritage Town, home of the ‘Donegal
Tweed’, and one of Ireland’s best known traditional centres of
tweed & knitwear production.
