Walking the Edge- Ag Siúl ar an Imeall

A Wild Coastal Immersion

Walking the Edge- a Wild Coastal Immersion is our Coastal Walking tour and rare opportunity to have the insider’s view of life in this unique coastal habitat on the extreme edge of Europe. Stories of seafaring, legendary conflict and survival intertwine with the dramatic coastline and a wealth of marine life which resides peacefully there.

This tour takes place on either the coastal margins of NW Donegal with a view of the Atlantic seaboard and lasts  4hrs. This  dramatic and magical coastline contains coastal communities with a resident population who speak Irish, or Gaeilge, with a long and vibrant lineage stretching back to ancient times.

This Coastal Tour is guided by Aodh or Hugh, a native Irish speaker resident in Rann na Feirste (Ranafast) and teacher and can be taken in the Irish or English language.

We also offer a Tory Island Tour version of this tour, bookable on a different page, here:
