And here is the view from the front of the house:
The towering headland of Horn Head has some of the Wild Atlantic Way’s most spectacular scenery, with dramatic quartzite cliffs, topped with bog and heather. Horn Head cliffs rise straight out of the water to a height of about 180m. I was so fortunate to have some of the best weather of the whole trip so far while I was walking out on Horn Head.
There is a old, WWII look out, in ruins, on Horn Head...and lots of stunning views everywhere you look!
It really was me out there taking those photos
After Leaving Horn Head the day was spent driving; sometimes along the coast and sometimes inland, but regardless of where I was there was no shortage of reasons to stop the car and take pictures.
This is one of those famous, dual-lane roads that you can find all over Ireland
Gaeltacht is an Irish language word for any primarily Irish-speaking region, and there is a large Gaeltacht area in County Donegal. The Gaeltacht districts were first officially recognized during the 1920s in the early years of the Irish Free State, as part of a government policy aimed at restoring the Irish language.
Errigal Mountain (752m) dominates the landscape, appearing conical from some angles, but from others like a jagged shark’s fin coming up through the heather bogs.
Ardara was tonight’s destination, with some after dinner music at The Corner House
