Gleniff Horseshoe
Nature preserve
👍 Amazing scenery. The loop is 10km and easy to do for kids if they are used to walking. If you park at the mill, then I recommend walking anti clockwise, start down the hill from there, left at the junction, then left again pass the bridge and loop around. Going this way children will have smaller hi...

Fairy Bridges
Tourist attraction
👍 The Fairy Bridges is a natural arch in the cliffs, with blow holes that date as far back as the 1700s. The Wishing Chair is also very popular with visitors, who take advantage of the magical powers of the natural stone chair. More than the bridge I loved the beautiful beach and sea around this area....

Rosses Point Beach
Public beach
👍👍 Beautiful beach with stunning views of the Atlantic and Benbulben. Water stays shallow for quite far out so safe swimming is guaranteed if you follow the tide guide posted at the end of the steps down to the beach. Would benefit from having a changing facility for folks who value privacy, but otherw...

Atlantic Sheepdogs
Tourist attraction
👍👍 This was a definite highlight of my trip to Ireland. Martin was a joy to listen to. Very much the Irish storyteller and his sense of humor was delightful. His dog, Joe, stole the show while herding the sheep. It really was a much needed and welcome reprieve from the sobering history of this wonderfu...

Largy Viewpoint
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Largy waterfall is amazing!!! But a fairly treacherous climb to get there, especially in wet weather. Make sure tide is out, can be very dangerous. Good footwear with good grips recommended, not for the faint hearted, unsuitable to bring children or dogs

Devil’s Chimney
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Excellent mini hike, quite tough in places. Make sure to read the signs...If you can't see the waterfall from the Car Park then it's dry. Still a nice hike and views of the lake.

Dunmoran Strand
Tourist attraction
👍 1.3 miles of sandy beach Dunmoran strand is a popular location. A bit off the beaten track it is never overcrowded and with ample parking each end with a pub and restaurant one end it is popular with walkers, surfers and everyone in between. It’s a beach that even when the tide is out it’s not a hik...

The County Sligo Golf Club
Golf club
👍👍 The Championship course at CSGC is a spectacular, challenging layout that is beautifully maintained and a true pleasure to play. Our forecaddy Danny was a young gentlemen and helped our foursome’s enjoyment of the course immensely, helping to lower our scores and find our errant shots (of which ther...

Tullan Strand
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Beautiful beach.. very near to Bundoran adventure park. There is a car park, however the free parking outside is usually occupied by the Surf vendors. The paid parking inside has ample space but paying for that parking is nightmare.. I lost atleast 5 Euros to the machine as it would randomly not acc...

St John's Point Beach
Tourist attraction
👍👍 On a sunny summers day one could imagine they are on a Greek Island. Azure water and coral sand. It's picture perfect especially with the wee row boats mooring in the bay. Not unusual to meet free roaming cows enjoying a summer dip.

Eagle's Rock
Scenic spot
👍 Really beautiful spot. Unfortunately you cannot hike the trail which is misleading as there is a very short path about 10-20 metres that leads to a gate at which point it becomes private property. You can get nice photos but it's quite a drive just for some photos.
Worth a visit if passing by but no...

Drumcliffe Church & W. B Yeat's Grave
Tourist attraction
👍 I wandered lonely as a tourist. After a look around the graveyard I had to ask Rev Malcolm where the main man's grave was. Very understated located just to the left of the door into the church. Buried with his wife and in full view of Benbulbin. Nice little coffee shop in site too, busy but quick tu...
