Stand atop a stretch of coastal cliffs that are among the highest in Europe, an exhilarating experience that will feel as if you’re at the very edge of the world. The towering Sliabh Liag cliffs—also called the Slieve League cliffs—plummet straight down to the sea in one of the most remote areas of County Donegal. Almost three times higher than the more famous Cliffs of Moher, Sliabh Liag presents panoramic views of a wild, absolutely pristine landscape that are stunning beyond words. On a clear day, you can see the town of Sligo and the Mayo Mountains across the sea to the south. The guide will offer a historical perspective that may reference ancient stone remains that suggest the cliffs may have once been a pilgrimage site. Later, you will have time to reflect on the experience while enjoying scones and a beverage at the Tí Linn Café & Craft Shop.


HIGHLIGHTS:
• Take in the stunning views while standing atop one the highest coastal cliffs in Europe.
