Slieve League

Beautiful sights. Be sure to go on a clear day if you want good pictures😂. We went during some rain and fog so it was a wet hike.

Such a stunning place, although we did get very lucky with some sunny weather. The car park is quite pricey, but it’s still worth it. It’s a nice walk up to the viewing points. The views are fantastic. Perhaps it is slightly spoiled at times by the constant shuttle buses, or the vendors.

Better than the Cliffs of Moher. Fewer people. Parking is cheaper and limited spaces. No entry fee.

The best cliffs in Ireland. Well prepared car park (costing 10 EUR), solid road and the views. As long as the weather is good it's a must visit location in Ireland. Cliffs of Mother are way less exciting.

Slieve league was definitely worth our side adventure. The ride there was beautiful. The car parking lot at the entrance was full, we were told to go down to the main town and there was a location where we were able to pay €6 for the bus to and from the main look out. You can walk in or take a short bus ride, which was helpful because we climbed to the top. There was a wedding also being held there which looked beautiful. There is also a little snack truck with coffees, treats and drinks.

This place is absolutely breathtaking—no camera can truly capture its grandeur. Shouldn’t miss this when in Ireland. Even the drive to this place is absolutely beautiful. There are three ways to reach the cliff: 1. Park your car at the designated parking area and enjoy a scenic 2 km walk. 2. Take a shuttle bus from the visitor center. 3. Drive all the way to the top—but be aware that parking at the cliff is very limited. It’s best to check with the visitor center before heading up.

Breathtakingly beautiful. Bit of a walk to get there, but the views are absolutely spectacular. Binoculars and a selfie stick are a must!

The best site EVER!!! Booked for four nights, stayed one night and booked extra three nights. Fantastic location for touring Co.Donegal. The facilities are excellent. Ciarán and his team make you so welcome. Always free for a chat. We will definitely be back and recommend it to everyone.

One of the most beautiful landscapes we saw while in Ireland even though we caught it on a CRAZY windy and rainy day it was still breathtaking! The roads are very narrow, but it is worth it! We saw lots of goats crossing the street too.

We saw both these and the Cliffs of Moher on our trip, and these were undoubtedly the favorite. The view was spectacular, the hiking options amazing, and not touristy at all like the Moher area. The surrounding fishing seaport towns were quaint and pristine. There were herds of sheep we had to drive by to reach the cliffs, and that just always set the mood. We were there on a day with particularly nasty weather and half the group on day 2 of miserable head colds. Considering those factors, we didn't stay too long, but I definitely felt a longing to despite the biting wind and how terrible I felt. In comparison, I was quite bored by the Cliffs of Moher despite better weather and not yet being very sick. If I was returning to Ireland, I would plan to spend a lot more time here.

What an awesome place! I had read really good things about the views here and it definitely lived up to them. To get there, I put in directions to Teelin, where there is supposedly a visitor's center that we couldn't find. From there, we followed the signs to the viewpoint. The road up to the viewpoint are very narrow (typical of Ireland). You'll come to one parking lot with a gate on the other side. This is just a sheep gate that you can open and continue driving up to the top. Once at the top, the views of the cliffs are incredible. This had the best cliff views we saw in Ireland. It was way better (and less crowded/touristy) than the Cliffs of Moher. You can hike to the summit from the parking lot, which we did. The views weren't really much different than they were from the parking lot, but the short climb was not nearly as steep as it looked. You can also get to the top from a different starting point via Pilgrim's Pass, but I read that it was very challenging even for experienced hikers so we decided not to do that. There is a tiny little cart with gifts to buy, but no buildings or bathrooms. This was one of my favorite things we did in Ireland and it is definitely worth stopping at!

We've been here twice, two years apart. Our first visit, we hiked from the lower parking lot to the top-phew! And this time we drove up, as we were on a tighter schedule, but then still hiked from the second parking lot to the very top. The paths can be slick in misty weather so come prepared with sturdy shoes. There was a small gift shop and mini-cafe at the top of the second lot so you can buy a few snacks, or plan ahead and pack a picnic. It's a hearty hike, but definitely manageable if you have good shoes. The view is breathtaking.

A great experience. We walked up from the main parking lot on a sunny day and found the views invigorating. The kids enjoyed trying to get close to the sheep which roamed freely. What I loved most was how few people there were compared to what I saw at cliffs of Moher. I would suggest that if people have limited time and have to pick between here and Cliffs of Moher skip the crowds and head to Slieve League. Also suggest the lobster roll at top of the mountain.

This is the most breathtaking and frightening place that I have been to thus far on this earth. Slieve League are either the highest or second highest sea cliffs in Europe, depending on your source. 601 meters according to Wikipedia. It really doesn't matter because you won't be thinking about that when you get out here. We drove out here on a really indifferent day with low cloud cover and driving out here seemed pretty treacherous. There is a very narrow unpaved path that wanders around the edge of the cliffs. It is meant to accommodate traffic in two directions. In most spots that is okay, but as your near the top, it gets very tight and some people insist on going at high speeds. I think we wouldn't have been so freaked out driving up except that there was fog and you couldn't see over the edge of the path which made it even more frightening. I thought I was about to drive the car over the edge. Anyway, on the way down the fog lifted so you could see that you had a little more room until you plunged to your death. The cliffs themselves are spectacular. The ocean crashes against the bottom, sometimes barely visible because of the fog. You feel like you are in one of the remotest, most beautiful places on earth. It is worth the journey to get here and to see something that comparatively few people get out to. Donegal is amazing.

A spectacular experience. The cliffs are enormous and the photos don't do the view justice. Just a short drive out of Donegal, this site is well worth the trip. Can't recommend enough!
