    At the center of the park on the edge of Lough Veagh is Glenveagh Castle, a late 19th century crenellated manor house built as a hunting lodge. There is also a small restaurant here. You can walk here from the parking lot and take the bus back, or vice versa.

      Glenveagh National Park is one of the really big attractions in County Donegal in the north-west of the Republic of Ireland, and not just in terms of extent. The idyllic area of lakes and moorland measures a good 16,500 hectares. Of Ireland's six national parks, only Wicklow National Park is larger. 100 hectares are covered with dense forest, its largest being Mullangore Wood. Oaks and birches predominate here alongside ash, yew and aspen, over holly and hazelnut. The park is part of the Derryveagh Mountains.
