Glenveagh National Park: Most Beautiful National Parks of the Wild Atlantic Way. #wildatlanticway #irelandtravel

Glenveagh National Park sits in the heart of the Derryveagh Mountains in County Donegal. This remote setting previously served as a private deer forest before officially being designated a national park in 1975. Opened to the public nine years later in 1984, Glenveagh National Park encompasses over 16,000 hectares of County Donegal mountains, lakes, glens and woods, not to mention the gorgeous Glenveagh Gardens. An area rich in wilderness, the park is the haunt of much plant, animal and bird life, including a herd of striking red deer, ravens, and peregrine falcons. There have even been rare sightings of golden eagles.
