BinswillyMountain / peak · 1.4 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Binswilly is flying under the radar, and honestly, it’s doing itself a favor with that name. It’s got a mysterious vibe that makes you want to know more without asking. Go now, before it gets famous.
CarrickatinyanMegalithic structure · 1.4 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Carrickatinyan sits in An Srath Mór, which means 'the big valley.' The name on the map is a bit of a riddle itself. It’s a megalithic structure that has kept its secrets for millennia, waiting for curious minds to peek.
Owenwee BridgeBridge · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Owenwee Bridge crosses the river on one broad arch, with long rock-faced stones set around its curve. Built around 1860, it looks almost as if the arch stretched each stone to fit. The rubble abutments stay plain by comparison.
CrocknageehaMountain / peak · 1.8 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Crocknageeha is whispering secrets to the wind that we’re too tired to hear. It’s got a mystical vibe that’s mostly just damp grass and mud. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than I ever could.
Droichead na hAbhna Bige [Owenbeg Bridge]Bridge · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Droichead na hAbhna Bige has these really long, squinty stones in the arch that look totally different from the chunky bits holding it up. I bet they were trying to make the bridge look like it’s wearing a very fancy, crooked hat.
Burial in Crathaigh (tc Suí Corr)Burial · 2.4 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Burial in Crathaigh is a chilling find from 1978, when turf-cutters pulled a crouched body out of the bog. Traces of clothing and rope were found before it was reinterred without much ceremony. It’s a grim reminder that the peat holds secrets tight, often leaving us with more questions than answers.
Páirc Naisiúnta Ghleann Bheatha - Glenveagh National ParkNature reserve · 3.3 miExplorer Tom Glenveagh National Park is massive and moody, with Lough Veagh staring back at you like it knows all your secrets. The air smells of peat and ancient drama, perfect for feeling small in the face of nature’s indifference. Bring a coin for luck and keep it tightly in your pocket.
Astelleen Burn WaterfallWaterfall · 4.5 miExplorer Tom Astelleen Burn Waterfall is a sloping torrent three kilometres from Glenveagh, named after a flood or deluge. Sounds dramatic, doesn’t it? Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call, just don’t slip on the wet rocks.
Wilkin's of Church HillPub · 5.1 miExplorer Tom Wilkin's of Church Hill in County Donegal sounds like it's guarded by an angel who demands tips. If the church bell rings, run for cover before the gossip starts.
Children's playground5.2 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Donegal is covered in leaves that look like autumn's final apology for being so messy. I bet if you dig deep enough, you'll find a coin from 1985 and instant fame. Go back in winter, it's a different animal entirely.
European Beech5.3 miExplorer Tom European Beech in County Donegal is another one of those trees with attitude, standing tall while you try to figure out where you’re going. It’s calm, ancient, and completely unbothered by your presence. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt like butter on toast.
Glebe House and GalleryHeritage attraction · 5.4 miExplorer Tom Glebe House and Gallery lets me visit Derek Hill's home and then see what became of his studio. An 1828 house, art and woodland gardens make quite a three-part outing. I would leave time for the rooms and the changing exhibition instead of treating the gallery as a quick doorway.
