Take in the View From 6 of the World's Tallest Sea Cliffs

Slieve League is home to some of the tallest sea cliffs in Europe, soaring nearly 2,000 feet over Ireland's northwest Atlantic coastline in County Donegal.

Visitors can drive almost all the way to the main lookout over the cliffs, Bunglas Viewpoint, and take in stunning views of Donegal Bay, Rathlin O'Birne Island, and the so-called "Giant's Chair and Desk" — which, according to folklore, belonged to the giant Finn McCool. Hikers can also explore routes such as One Man's Path and Pilgrim's Path. They cross land once traversed by Christian pilgrims, who consider the cliffs to be sacred.
