County Donegal - Attractions and Things to Do

County Donegal presents an ever-changing spectacle of landscapes and seascapes set against a backdrop of mountains and moors, with evidence everywhere of traditional Irish culture. Donegal boasts a vast rugged coastline softened regularly by a succession of beautiful beaches with golden sand and clear fresh waters. Inland, Donegal is wild and unspoilt with winding roads leading to never-ending spectacular vistas.

Golfing and fishing are popular activities in County Donegal and there’s no shortage of facilities available. Other major attractions include Glenveagh National Park and Castle, Tory Island, Glebe House and Gallery, Colmcille Heritage Centre, Fort Dunree Military Museum and Abbey Mill Wheels. Donegal also has some interesting archaeological sites; around Ballyshannon, for example, you'll find ruined castles, religious sites and celtic raths.

Letterkenny and Bundoran, County Donegal

Letterkenny, County Donegal's largest town, has a vibrant atmosphere. It's a great place to shop for everything from high street fashions to quality handcrafted goods and designer clothes - alternately, you can relax and enjoy a coffee in one of Letterkenny's many continental-style cafes. Seaside resorts like Bundoran provide a change of mood - if you're looking for lively nights filled with music, song and dance, then Bundoran is the place to go.
