Glenveagh National Park is the largest national park in Ireland with 16,548 hectares. The area is home to Mount Errigal, 751 metres high, and Mount Slieve Snaght, 683 metres high. The lake Lough Veagh, where the Glenveagh Castle with its Victorian gardens is located, is also a landscape characterising. During your walk through the national park you can see many animals, such as large herds of red deer and golden eagles.
2. Go to the gigantic sea cliffsSlieve League is the name for the 601 high cliffs that drop steeply into the sea not far from Teelin. These cliffs are among the highest in Europe. In addition to the magnificent view, you can also admire the ruins of a chapel, a semi-circular stone wall and a dilapidated beehive hut and visit the holy spring there.
3. Visit the Celtic cult siteThree kilometres south of Raphoe is the stone circle of Beltany. The name of the stone circle goes back to the Celtic fertility festival Beltane, which was probably celebrated here. Today 64 of the stone circle, which originally consisted of about 80 stones, are still preserved. The stone circle, which is situated on an elevated platform, has a diameter of 44 metres and probably dates from around 3000 BC.
