"Where the mountains rise to the oft-changing skies, And the castle stands stately and gray; Where the still lake still lies, beneath that wild, rugged hill, In the vale of lovely Glenveagh..." By: Herbert W.K. Sterritt

Great castle that was once seen in a James Bond film. It is located in the middle of a large national park that is worth hiking.

The house is built in the Scottish Baronial style and consists of a four storey rectangular keep surrounded by a garden.

Letterkenny, rather than Donegal, is the largest town in County Donegal. It is a lively town. Stomping round the streets of the town makes for an interesting and varied run. There is plenty of culture as well as historic buildings to entertain you.

This is an interesting complex of building to run past, the oldest of which is 400 years old. If you have any spare time in the area, staff at Newmills offer free tours for visitors.

The Wishing Chair is carved out of stone and sits overlooking wonderful views of Donegal Bay. If you want to follow in the footsteps of the surfer Kelly Slater and make a wish, there is an information board closeby which tells you how to do it properly. The naturally eroded bridges were once thought to be the home of fairies, hence their evocative name.

The beach at Bonduran is popular with all the amenities you'd expect at a town bay, including lifeguards and amusement arcades and a funfair if you have some young runners with you. It is regularly used by surfers and you can run along the cliffs from here to take a closer look.

You can explore Glenveagh National Park on two feet by running alongside Lough Veagh to Glenveagh Castle or heading further afield along the Bridle Path to the southwest which meets the R254. It is one of the biggest attractions in County Donegal.
