Glenveagh National Park lies in the heart of the Derryveagh Mountains in the north-west of Co. Donegal and is one of six national parks in Ireland. It is a remote and hauntingly beautiful wilderness of rugged mountains and pristine lakes.
The Park, over 16,000 hectacres in extent, consists of three areas. The largest of these is the former Glenveagh Estate, including most of the Derryveagh Mountains. To the west are the quartzite hills around Crocknafarragh and to the south, the peatlands of Lough Barra bog, Meenachullion and Crockastoller.
Glenveagh National Park is located 24km north-west of Letterkenny and can be reached via the village of Churchill.
