Derryveagh

The location map here shows the coverage of our forthcoming Derryveagh 1:25,000 scale map. Derryveagh strictly as an area seems to apply to the hillslopes and land immediately west of Gartan Loch but is applied to the general run of hills from Gartan and Glenveagh to Sliabh Sneachta.

Errigal is of course the monarch of Dunlewey and the run of hills from Errigal to Muckish in the north forms the challenging route of the annual Joey Glover Memorial Walk, previously called the Highland Way. But which has in more recent times acquired the label of the Seven Sisters.

Lastly the hills east of Loch Barra are called the Glendowan Mountains.
