is located in Letterkenny. There are bus trips in the parking and visitor’s centre and the castle, but I highly recommend packing in some walking shoes and taking the road less travelled! Watching the sweeping landscapes of Donegal then seeing the lush greenery and the imposing face of the castle come into view is a sight worth appreciating.
The Castle itself has guided tours, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Their guided staff are very friendly and clued-up, The tour highlights the changes the castle has undergone through the years and the different owners, and the decor is fantastically well kept and preserves.

This is probably the most part of the beautiful Donegal peninsulas. You get a real view of the power of the sea and the a real sense of the wild peninsula. There are two magnificent viewpoints, one on the north side where the cliffs dominate the scenery and the other on the south side overlooking Dunfanaghy, with the backdrop of Muckish and the Derryveagh mountains. Before you cross the first cattle grid where the drive swings east, a narrow road ahead will bring you to a tower where you can enjoy the wild beauty all around you and even spot the houses on Tory Island to the west. Take your car a short distance on this road, park in the lay – by provided and walk the well-used trail towards the tower. Return to the junction to continue your drive where you emerge again in Dunfanaghy. Turn right in Dunfanaghy. As you head out of the village, the famine centre is on the right and chronicles the local effects of the terrible famine, which occurred in Ireland between 1845 and 1847.

This road contains a €2.90 of a toll

Malin Beg is a beautiful bay with a beach, located near Glencolmcille in County Donegal. Quite narrow, it is one of the most beautiful beaches. Little frequented (the spot is often ignored by tourists), Malin Beg has the advantage of being a bay rather encased in the land, and associates green spaces, beach of a bright white, and transparent turquoise water. Perfect colors! A real little paradise for summer vacationers looking for peace and quiet, and a place to swim!

The castle was built in 1474 by the clan chief Hugh O’Donnell, one of the most important families of the time. Built on the banks of the Eske River, the castle was therefore considered to be one of the most imposing castles ever owned by an Irish clan chief.
