Tucked away in Ireland's remote northwest, Donegal boasts Ireland's wildest landscapes, empty golden beaches, and rich Gaelic culture.
1. Slieve League Sea Cliffs
Stand atop sea cliffs rising nearly three times higher than the Cliffs of Moher, gazing into the crashing wild Atlantic rollers.
2. Glenveagh National Park & Castle
Wander through tranquil Victorian lakeside gardens and tour the Scottish Baronial castle surrounded by Derryveagh mountains.
Travel Tip: Take the coastal route through the Inishowen Peninsula to Malin Head, Ireland's most northerly mainland point.
Connect with raw Celtic beauty, uncrowded coastal hiking, and warm traditional Irish hospitality.
