Itinerary description

This is the highest mountain in County Donegal (altitude 744 m). The walk starts at Mount Errigal Hike parking located near Errigal Youth Hostel on the R 251 road. This is not a long walk and there views are spectacular on a clear day from the top. The descending is usually on the same path as the way up from the car park. However In this case we did a loop walk but the descent is challenging as the terrain has loose gravel and it is steep.

    Hemos subido y bajado por la ruta normal sin hacer la circular. Con bocadillo y fotos en dos horas. Han alicatado toda la subida asi que es imposible perderse. Una pena porque el monte es guapo. El bucle tiene que estar chulo pero con niebla no apetecía.
