An ChuirtHotel · 930 ydExplorer Tom An Chuirt in Gweedore is shaking its head at Storm Desmond's leftovers while you're here. Get a picture of that wet window for me.
Heath CottageHouse · 1099 ydExplorer Tom Heath Cottage in Meenderrygamp has been out of use but keeps its mid-nineteenth-century dignity intact. It’s got roughcast walls and timber sash windows that give it serious vernacular vibes. Peek through a window if you dare, just for me!
Siúlóid an Chlocháin BhigOfficial walking route · 1.2 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this walking route.Explorer Tom Siúlóid an Chlocháin Bhig is a loop that sounds small but packs a punch with its name. Six point three kilometers of moderate hiking is enough to make you feel accomplished. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?
Cairn, CronalaghtPublicly named cairn · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Cairn, Cronalaght is a place where the name suggests a specific local identity and history. I imagine it’s one of those spots where people have gathered or marked their presence for generations. It’s a name that makes you wonder about the stories behind the stones.
CronalaghMountain / peak · 1.5 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Cronalagh sits in County Donegal as a mountain peak with no recorded access details. The name sounds like it’s waiting for a crowd, but the map just shrugs its shoulders at you. I bet it’s perfectly content letting everyone guess their way up!
Bullaun stone in DobharBullaun stone · 1.6 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Bullaun stone in Dobhar is a bit of a mystery, as the record doesn’t have many details yet. It’s just a name waiting for a story to be told about its bowl and purpose. I reckon it’s quietly sitting there, hoping someone will finally explain what it was for.
Siúlóid Cois an GhaothOfficial walking route · 1.7 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this walking route.Explorer Tom Siúlóid Cois an Ghaoth is a linear walk with a name that sounds like a wind instrument. It's short and moderate, perfect for testing the wind on your face. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Children's playground1.9 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Donegal looks like a castle if you squint hard enough and ignore reality. It’s definitely not a castle, but it does have that vibe. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
factory2.3 miExplorer Tom Factory in Killindarragh was built c.1900 with those serious crow-stepped gables, yet locals say Black and Tans used it as a barracks during the War of Independence. Did they just park their boots by the door and call it home? I bet the walls were too fancy for their taste.
Taobh an LeithidMountain / peak · 2.6 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Taobh an Leithid sounds like a Gaelic phrase for 'I left my keys at home.' It’s definitely got some character hidden under that name. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show you don't want to miss.
Danny Minnie'sRestaurant · 3.7 miExplorer Tom Danny Minnie’s must be a restaurant run by two very confused people who forgot their last names. Expect a menu item called 'Confusion' with extra garlic.
Braade StrandBeach / strand · 3.9 miExplorer Tom Braade Strand is where the water gets behind you, which is a great metaphor for your student loans. It’s wild, untamed, and probably colder than your ex's heart. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.
