Why Go?

Up here its different, the saying goes, and its true. County Donegal is the wild child of Ireland. Even before the twins of history and politics conspired to isolate it, Donegal was a place like no other on the island. Its a county of extremes; at times bleak and desolate and beaten by brutal weather, yet in turn a land of unspoilt splendour where stark mountains and sweeping beaches bask in glorious sunshine. The rugged interior with its gorgeous mountain passes and shimmering lakes is only marginally outdone by the long and labyrinthine coastline with its precipitous cliffs, windswept peninsulas and vast expanses of golden sand. The landscape here easily rivals anything Connemara or Kerry has to offer but Donegal sees only a fraction of their visitors. Proudly different and fiercely independent, one-third of the county is official Gaeltacht territory, where Irish is still the lingua franca.

When to Go

Donegals character is forged by its impetuous weather. In winter the howling winds and sheeting rain can feel Arctic, and storms arrive unannounced. In summer the weather isnt much more reliable but the clouds regularly break into brilliant sunshine that transforms brooding blues and greys into sparkling green. At this time of year youll also get the pick of traditional music, storytelling and dance festivals that spring up across the county. The beach-side hotels and restaurants come out of hibernation and the surfers hit the waves.
