Donegal is top of my list of places to visit outside of the Mournes. It's only a 2 hour drive from Belfast and it looks wonderfully wild.
and its land rover heaven :) loads and loads of wee lanes to explore
Its a wonderful spot, clean, deserted beaches, rugged mountains and virtually deserted walking trails http://www.irishtrails.ie/trail.aspx?id=6 I am definitely going to get a trip organised at some stage, as camping wouldnt be a problem, and theres always plenty of turf for the campfire as the relatives have their own turf bog! lol

The land rover would be the ticket for the wee lanes alright! wouldnt like to be turning the mondeo down some of them! ;D
I would be interested in a walking trip up to Donegal.
Think I'll drive up and walk once I'm there ::)
