Mountains, lakes, and remote landscapes in the heart of Donegal
Rugged mountains, deep glens, blanket bog, and broad lakes create a landscape shaped by geology, weather, and a long history of isolation. Located in County Donegal in north-west Ireland, Glenveagh National Park protects one of the country's largest areas of wild upland scenery, where open landscapes, native woodland, and remote valleys combine to create an exceptional walking environment.
Walking routes within and around the national park link places including Glenveagh Castle, Lough Veagh, Poisoned Glen, and the surrounding Derryveagh Mountains. Mountain paths, lakeside trails, woodland tracks, and upland routes reveal changing views across remote valleys, rocky slopes, waterfalls, and some of Ireland's most dramatic scenery, creating journeys closely connected to the character of the landscape.
Whether exploring the shores of Lough Veagh, walking through the park's native woodland, or venturing deeper into the surrounding mountains, Glenveagh rewards time spent on foot. Wild scenery, rich wildlife, and a remarkable sense of space make it one of Ireland's most rewarding destinations for self-guided travel.
