THE Inishowen Walking
Festival will take place this year from Friday 12th to
Sunday 14th September 2025. This exciting event invites
walkers of all levels to explore the stunning landscapes
of the peninsula through a series of guided walks. |
Niall McCaughan, Manager
at Go Visit Inishowen stated: “We are really excited to
launch this year’s Inishowen Walking Festival which
takes place over the second weekend in September. With a
range of routes that showcase the breathtaking natural
beauty and unique heritage of Inishowen, the festival
offers something for everyone. From coastal treks to
scenic inland trails, this is a fantastic opportunity to
connect with nature and enjoy the outdoors in the
company of fellow enthusiasts. As a Member of a local
hill-walking group myself, I can’t wait to visit some of
the great walking locations across the region.”
Barry McLaughlin, CHANCE Project Coordinator at
Inishowen Development Partnership stated: “Inishowen
Development Partnership is delighted yet again to be
working with Go Visit Inishowen on one of the North
West’s best known and loved Walking Festivals. This year
again, we have a great range of Walks in Malin Head,
Muff, Dunree, Buncrana and many other locations. As an
additional bonus, the Walks are led by local people and
community groups, so participants will be given unique
local knowledge which wouldn’t necessarily be known by
people outside of the area. Whether you're a seasoned
hiker or just looking for a leisurely walk with friends,
this is a weekend not to be missed!” |
The Inishowen Walking
Festival is a free event but participants are encouraged
to make a small donation towards Go Visit Inishowen
through the festival website. More information about the
walks as well as registration can be found at:
