Sliabh Liag Cliff viewpoint - Shuttlebus Experience

Take a shuttle bus to the top of the Sliabh Liag cliffs and enjoy panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding mountains.
Discover the natural beauty of Sliabh Liag on the Wild Atlantic Way in County Donegal on a day trip from the Sliabh Liag Visitor Centre. Admire the views from the cliffs, learn about the local legends, and explore the upland paths.

Start your adventure at the Sliabh Liag Visitor Centre, located just outside the nearby village of Carrick. With friendly, knowledgeable staff and a warm Donegal welcome, the Visitor Centre offers helpful insight into what lies ahead. Before you set off, be sure to enjoy a cup of tea and one of Helena’s famous homemade scones, freshly delivered that morning.

From here, hop aboard the Sliabh Liag shuttle bus, a convenient and eco-friendly way to access the cliffs. As the shuttle winds its way upwards, notice the landscape shifting dramatically. This is a place shaped by over 300 million years of geological history. The very bones of the land tell a story — the cliffs are made up of ancient layers of quartzite and schist, shaped by time, tectonic activity, and the relentless power of the Atlantic Ocean.

Standing at Bunglás, where the shuttle drops you off, the scale and grandeur of the cliffs take your breath away. It's a humbling reminder of nature’s power and timelessness. From the viewing point, have panoramic views that stretch from Donegal Bay to the mountains of Sligo and Mayo on a clear day. The cliffs plunge almost vertically into the sea below, and during spring and summer, they’re alive with the sound and motion of seabirds. Keep your eyes peeled — you might even spot dolphins or basking sharks in the waters below.

For those ready to stretch their legs, the upland path walks beckon. These well-maintained trails allow visitors to explore deeper into this pristine landscape, passing through blanket boglands that are home to unique flora and fauna. This is one of the best-preserved examples of upland bog habitat in Ireland, and it’s incredibly important both environmentally and culturally. The quiet stillness of the bog, broken only by the call of a skylark or the rustle of the breeze through heather and moss, offers a deep sense of peace.

There’s something special about walking these trails — you're literally walking through history, nature, and myth. These cliffs have been a place of pilgrimage, solitude, and spiritual reflection for centuries. The One Man’s Path, not for the faint-hearted, offers a more adventurous hike with jaw-dropping views and a thrilling sense of elevation. It’s an optional extra for those with a head for heights.

After your hike or stroll, the shuttle is ready to bring you back down to the Visitor Centre, where you can unwind, pick up a locally crafted souvenir, or enjoy another cuppa and chat with the welcoming team.
