What you can expect

Enjoy an informative and entertaining guided tour of one of Donegal's most spectacular Woodland and Nature Reserves. Follow me as I walk you through this native Irish forest where I'll discuss the history of native trees in Ireland, their practical uses, the folklore that surrounds them, the understory plants that co-exist in this delicately balanced eco-system and the fauna that live amongst them. The various looped trails extend to around 1.5km in length and the tour takes approximately 1hr 30mins.

You will also visit a birdwatching hut to hopefully catch a glimpse of a few common Irish field birds. This is the ideal tour for active nature lovers who want to connect with the island in it's truest form.
