Glenveagh National Park is located in the heart of County Donegal, amidst the wild and rugged landscape of the Derryveagh Mountains. Its pristine habitats and protected wildlife, as well as the stunning Victorian castle and gardens along Lough Veagh, make Glenveagh an ideal retreat for nature lovers.

Cycling

The bridle path takes you down a wonderful valley towards Lough Veagh. The views are incredibly scenic and the trail is usually pretty quiet so plenty of time for peace and solitude.
