Donegal Town and County - Donegal - Things To Do Reviews

I am a native of Donegal Town, so this review is for any people looking to find out more about the area. Donegal Town in located in the north west part of the Republic Of Ireland. It is very close to the border with Northern Ireland (a part of Great Britain). Donegal is home to Donegal castle, a castle that belonged to The O Donnell chiefs that once ruled the north west of Ireland. Donegal has the highest sea cliffs in Europe called Slieve (Pronounced sleeve) League. On a good day, there is a beautiful view from the cliffs. Donegal is also home to Ireland's largest Fishing port Killybegs. Several different fishing trips are available at weekends (all year round) and all week during summer months. Again as in any Ireland holiday, weather can always play a factor in activities. On a very bright sunny day, Donegal and Ireland is as good as any destination world wide. The west of Donegal is a traditional Gaeltacht (pronounced gale-tact), irish speaking area, where some of the old lifestyle of ireland is still visible. There are some fabulous places to go walking, hill climbing, fishing, wind surfing, sailing and many other outdoor activities. Bundoran, a town in south Donegal has held the European Surfing championships on several occasions and provides great surfing all year round.
