Glenveagh National Park

Glenveagh National Park covers nearly 16,000 hectares of the Derryveagh Mountains in northwest Donegal and contains one of the largest expanses of intact Atlantic blanket bog in Ireland. The park's central valley is occupied by the long Lough Veagh and Glenveagh Castle, a nineteenth-century Scottish baronial-style shooting lodge with extensive planted gardens. Golden eagle reintroduction efforts in the park from the early 2000s have produced a small breeding population.
