Slieve League Cliffs Tour
How to Get to The Slieve League Cliffs?
To reach the Slieve League cliffs, you must go to the visitor centre located on Bunglas Road, where you can take the shuttle bus that will take you to one of Ireland's most amazing natural sites.
During the journey, which takes just 10 minutes, we'll tell you all about the secrets of the Slieve League cliffs on Ireland's Atlantic coast. Upon arrival, you'll have 30 to 40 minutes of free time to stroll along the trails at your leisure, admiring the wildlife and majestic rocky landscapes of the area.
Finally, we'll meet up again to return to the starting point by minibus.
Ireland's Tallest Cliffs
Standing at 601 m (1,971 ft) above the Atlantic, Slieve League boasts some of the highest sea cliffs in Europe. They are three times higher than the Cliffs of Moher!
These enormous cliffs are a true natural wonder that is well worth visiting. If you love spectacular landscapes, Slieve League offers one of the best views in Ireland. From the viewpoint, you can see incredible places such as Donegal Bay, stretching from Leitrim, Sligo and Mayo, Rathlin O'Bryne Island and Glencolmcille, as well as the famous Giant's Desk and Chair, two rock formations linked to a popular local legend.
As with every corner of Ireland, the Slieve League cliffs are also deeply rooted in Celtic mythology. Did you know that their name in Irish, Sliabh Liag, means 'mountain of stone pillars'? Where does their name come from? You'll learn all about it!
The best way to visit Ireland's highest cliffs is by hiking trails, all of which vary in length and difficulty. If you want to see them at their best, we recommend visiting at sunset, when you'll have spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean from the top.
