Killybegs to Glencolumbkille
Distance: 25 miles / 40 kms

Bus transfer from Sligo to Killybegs for 1,5 hour. Stop at Yeats graveyard.

This was the toughest day of them all considering the hills... The scenic route was marvellous. Beautiful view over Donegal Bay and a beach. The first picture of the group.

.....

The tour details said "a rollercoaster ride", and it sure was...
Publunch at Cul Dun a Duin.
Slieve League: The highest marine cliffs in Europe (1.972 ft).

..... .....

Ketil with the cliffs in the background; Geir, Ketil and Finn; Kristin and Bente (missing); Bente on the edge.
We weren't quite prepared for the walk up to Slieve League, but it was worth it.
What a view !!!

Then we headed for Glencolumbkille. The last hill was real tough... Caroline took the longer route; a scenic route with fantastic view, but the rest of us was too tired.
(Postcard Glencolumbkille missing)

Accommodations:
The Corner House: Bente & Ketil, Caroline, Diane, Martin and Stephen.
The Millstone: Kristin & Geir, Øystein and Finn.

Pub: Glen Head Tavern: Met before and after dinner for some Smithwicks and gin&tonics...
We had dinner at Cistin Restaurant, which felt like it was placed in the middle of nowhere. When we got back to the pub, it was crowded and live music.
