Atlantic Drive (Co Donegal) Virtual Cache

This cache has been archived.

WimpyKid1: I was happy to be able to take on two virtuals in Ireland a couple of years ago to keep going, however think this one has run its course (for example, no logs in the past 6 months). As the other is found very regularly I've decided to concentrate on responding to messages/checking validity of logs for that one, and shall ensure it stays active, being the oldest virtual in the country!

About the Atlantic Drive

Starting Point
Milford, Co. Donegal



Begin the spectacular Atlantic Tour Drive in Milford. Take the R248 north out of Milford to Carrigart on the isthmus separating Mulroy and Sheephaven Bays. After Carrigart continue on the R248, past the championship golf course at Rosapenna and on towards Downings. Follow the Atlantic Drive signs around the spectacular Rossguill Peninsula. Every turn you take opens up a new vista of the Atlantic Ocean and coastline before reaching the splendid beach and shoreline of Tra Na Rossan featured in the photograph above. Take the detour to Melmore Head where there are superb views of Fanad Head. As you finish the Atlantic Drive take the R245 to Carrigart and then turn right over the historic and picturesque Lackagh Bridge for Creeslough. The ruins of the 16th century Doe Castle can be seen on the right just before reaching the bridge.
