Overnighter in Donegal

[Flintlock]

Joined a couple of mates on an overnight wild camp in Donegal.
Met at Lurgan Sunday am - I arrived early so popped down to Kinnego to check out the Blue - green Algae


Headed to Tyrone via the Sperrin & a brekki stop in Gortin village

Highly recommended

Onward & a quick fishing stop at Killeter

No joy, never mind.

Across the border into Donegal & a stop at Fintown to take in the views for a while


On to Dungloe & hugged the coast until we found a suitable spot for the night


Nicely isolated from the camper vans & located between two lovely beaches

 

[Flintlock]

Tents up & quickly settled in - butchers burgers, cheese & salad for tea


Chocolate brioche with toasted marshmallows for after

with a fresh brewed coffee

Fire in a bag deployed & a nice sunset to see the day out

Monday morning, on the road for 8am.
One of the group lead us round some nice wee roads around Mount Errigal

Back to the coast & a stop at The Shack at Marble Hill

Lovely spot overlooking Marble Hill Bay

Continued around the coast, then inland to Lifford & crossing back into Northern Ireland at Strabane.
Back through The Sperrins and across to the Glens of Antrim

then home.
Two full days, just over 500 miles

Lovely write up. We were in Dungloe a couple of weeks ago. Stayed at the Waterfront hotel. Nice little village and a great hotel.

Looks like a wee spot round the coast from Maghery. Lovely part of the world.
