Walkers Welcome


Donegal

Walkers in Donegal can choose from rugged way-marked trails, enchanting coastal paths, looped walks overlooking dramatic cliffs and routes that follow quiet mountain trails and country lanes.

One star of the show is the Blue Stack Way. It runs 47km from Donegal Town to Ardara, with local link routes from towns and villages where accommodation and entertainment are available adding a further 63km to the route.

Or if you’d prefer something a little more leisurely, check out the stunning lakeshore stroll around picturesque Lough Eske, the 3km Bank Walk around Donegal Bay or Donegal Town’s Historic Town Trail which takes in Donegal Castle, the Diamond (a square designed in the1600s) and a Napoleonic anchor retrieved from the sea in the 1850s.

Then again, you might want to get as far away from civilisation as possible. In that case, an exploration of the peaks of the Bluestack range might be in order. You’ll need to be well equipped with map and compass though, as certain parts are quite remote and some of these peaks are in excess of 600m.

Another superb option is Glenveagh National Park with its 16,958 hectares of mountain, bogs, lakes and woods. The park is is cut in two by the spectacular valley of Glenveagh and contains Donegal’s two highest mountains, Errigal and Slieve Snacht, as well as many other fine hills, notably Dooish and Leahanmore.

Ranger-led walks take place throughout the year giving visitors an opportunity to experience a true wilderness and perhaps the chance to see the recently introduced golden eagles.
