Dunlewey and the Poisoned Glen

30 minutes away

A lakeside church in the shadow of Errigal, with the eerie, beautiful glen just beyond it.

The Poisoned Glen is a dark, narrow valley cutting into the Derryveagh mountains behind Dunlewey, with Errigal standing over it.

The little lakeside church at Dunlewey, roofless and framed by the mountains, is one of the most photographed buildings in Donegal. There is a visitor centre with a cafe and craft shop beside it.
