It might be summer but it’s a great time for getting out there and hill walking.  Favourite places of ours to go at this time of year are Glen Head and SLiebh Leigh Sea Cliffs in North West Donegal, with clear blue skies there is no better way to brush off the city cob webs than a long hike in the hills.

Sleibh Leigh are The Highest Sea Cliffs in Ireland, higher than the Cliffs of Moher, people are becoming more away of them for their beauty and abundance of sea cliff walks including the famous “one man’s pass”.

There are also lovely places to stop off on way there such as the Rusty Mackerel Pub serving great sandwiches and drinks as well as Tí Linn Craft Shop and Tea House closer to the Cliffs.

It’s wonderful to chat to our American visitors in the store who are either on their way or returning from Donegal, our favourite county which thanks to The Wild Atlantic Way is now firmly fixed on the tourist trail on Ireland.
