IRELAND – HIKING THE CAUSEWAY COAST & DONEGAL
This unique journey invites blind and partially sighted travellers to immerse themselves in the raw, natural beauty of Ireland through accessible hikes, storytelling, and sensory exploration.
Over several days, you’ll experience the rugged and unspoilt wilderness of Northern Ireland and County Donegal, a corner of Europe untouched by the rush of modern life but alive with myths, legends, and rich traditions. This is a profound sensory experience: feel the mighty Atlantic wind on your face, listen to the crashing waves against the basalt columns of the iconic Giant’s Causeway, and touch the rough, windswept rock of some of the highest sea cliffs in Europe at Slieve League.
After exploring the wild Causeway Coast, the journey continues into County Donegal, a land celebrated for its romantically remote mountains, soaring cliffs, and sweeping white sand beaches. Along the way, you’ll be immersed in local stories, folklore, and the music of Ireland, with expert guides ensuring every moment is rich in touch, sound, and atmosphere.
This is more than a hiking trip, it’s a sensory adventure into the heart of Ireland’s most dramatic landscapes, designed to connect you deeply with the land, its people, and its timeless stories.

THE GIANT’S CAUSEWAY
Follow the clifftop along the Causeway Coastal Route, where the landscape grows wilder with every step. At the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Giant’s Causeway, feel the hexagonal basalt stones beneath your hands and feet, formed by volcanic forces and steeped in centuries of Irish folklore.
MALIN HEAD – IRELAND’S NORTHERNMOST POINT
After a ferry across the lough to the Inishowen Peninsula, we reach Malin Head, Ireland’s most northerly point. Here, the restless Atlantic winds shape a rugged headland filled with ancient archaeological sites. Our hike takes us across rocky hills and dramatic coastal cliffs, with the ocean always at our side.
EVENING FIRESIDE RELAXATION
End the days as the locals do, with a pint in hand and the warmth of an open fire. Listen to the crackle of flames and the friendly atmosphere of an Irish pub, a perfect way to unwind after a day outdoors.
GLENVEAGH NATIONAL PARK
Discover a wilderness of craggy mountains, still lakes, and cascading waterfalls in Glenveagh National Park. Begin by exploring the cultivated castle gardens before following winding trails through oak woodlands and the Derryveagh Mountains. Along the way, abandoned stone houses tell the story of families who once lived in this remote and challenging landscape.
THE TOWERING SLIEVE LEAGUE CLIFFS
Walk the ancient Pilgrim’s Path along the Slieve League Cliffs, some of the highest sea cliffs in Europe, rising three times taller than the Cliffs of Moher. Our hike takes us on the Pilgrim’s Path, a route used for Christian pilgrimages for centuries. Feel the wind rush past as waves crash below, a truly awe-inspiring setting where nature’s scale is almost overwhelming.
WALK ALONG THE BANKS OF LOWER LOUGH ERNE
Stroll the peaceful shores of Lower Lough Erne, where calm waters meet gentle woodland paths. Listen to the lapping of the lake, feel the cool breeze off the water, and enjoy the serenity of one of Ireland’s most tranquil landscapes.
