Fabulous site to visit, it is impossible to over exaggerate the beauty of Slieve League! I will add only a few comments. I hiked from the parking lot at the entrance. As this was an off peak period, the gatekeeper was allowing people to drive on up to the vista point. The hike to the vista point was not overly strenuous, but I like to walk and felt like I needed to “earn” my view. Once at the vista point, I hiked upward and onward for another hour. Though it was not an especially taxing hike, those going beyond the vista point should wear hiking boots or shoes to have solid purchase and ankle protection. I was on my own, so at a certain point I turned back due to very high winds, fog, and intermittent rain. Nothing I encountered would be challenging for experienced hikers or hill walkers. Walking back down to the parking lot,I was able to spot the watch tower from the Napoleonic period, it’s tucked in below a cliff. I also spotted the stones spelling out “EIRE” that were put in place during WWII to ward off foreign military aircraft entering into Irish airspace. That said, for military history buffs, both sights are of interest and warranted follow-up reading especially about the sun-rosa agreement for the Donegal air corridor. Though a technical violation of Eire neutrality, the corridor allowed the UK to base anti-submarine aircraft on the lake near Beleek with overflight of 6 miles across Eire and then into the Atlantic for combat missions.

Almost 2000 ft high, Slieve League is one of the highest sea cliffs in Europe, almost three times the height of the Cliffs of Moher. It's a dramatic sight from the viewpoint. where you can also see across Donegal Bay on a clear day. There is a paid parking lot, where you can leave your car and walk the rest of the way (though gates were open when we reached very early, so we could drive all the way to the top). It was quiet and peaceful, with just some sheep for company.

I had been to Sliabh Liag some years ago as part of a trip. Here, I was able to see them again, if briefly. As I remembered it, these were some of the most beautiful views of the sea in Ireland, and even on a cloudier day, these were incredible cliffs. The view of the clouds passing onto the land was a rather interesting sight, as was the view of the ocean. Sure, it was very windy and a bit rainy that day (which accounts for the short visit), but it was worth seeing the cliffs again. I will have to visit again on a clearer day, though.

We parked at the visitor center and took the bus up and back. The lower parking lot was completely full when we arrived on a sunny afternoon, so we were glad we went to the visitor center - and caught the bus within 5 minutes of arriving. It's beautiful up there and there are additional walks/hikes you can do if you're interested. If it's cold/windy/raining, it's still worth the bus ride up and back at the very least!

We had heard these cliffs were even more beautiful than the Cliffs of Moher and we weren’t disappointed. As you arrive at the bottom, there are 2 buildings - the closest one to you is where you park and buy bus tickets, and the next building is the cafe and store which is newish and has great items. Easiest for us was to buy a bus ticket (leaves every 1/2 hour or so both ways) for the 10 minute ride up to the cliffs. You can also drive to the ranger station, but it’s up a narrow road, there isn’t a ton of parking when you get there, and you still have to walk up to the cliffs. The bus seemed like the best option. Also, the drive to get there through Donegal County is really interesting including through Kellybegs, a major fishing port.

We went on a dry but very windy day. We parked as high up as we can go and then took the bus up. It was 5 euros each and worth every cent, it is a lot further up to the viewpoint than you think and walking up there on a windy day would have been very hard. When you get to the top there is a short path to the viewpoint and a couple of steps to get to the best view. We had a friend with mobility issues and the strong winds meant it was difficult for her and she didn’t make it all the way to the viewpoint. Some benches in the area where you wait for the bus would have been good as she had to perch on a rock, not ideal! The bus driver on the way back was superb as his Dad had mobility issues so he was used to helping him and he helped my friend to get off the bus as the 4 steps into the bus were quite steep.

Beautiful location. So worth a visit whether you walk or take the bus. We parked at the visitor centre and paid the €20 for the fare. The bus takes you right up to the viewing area and wow. Honestly stunning. Few vending vans there selling coffees, ice cream and tourist merch. You can choose whether to climb higher up the cliffs or just stop at that level. You definitely will not be disappointed if you head here.

We had a fabulous trip with the kids 7 & 9. We parked at the visitor centre and weren't waiting long for a bus to collect us and bring us up the steep drive to the viewing platform. The driver had some lovely tidbits to share on the drive and brought us to within a minutes walk of the viewing platform. It was the perfect spot for us to hike up higher with the kids for even more stunning views as they wouldn't have managed the walk up from the Ranger station and then the steep climb up without a lot of whining which would have affected our enjoyment of the day. We were only waiting 10 mins on a bus back down. The visitor centre has a fab café, reasonably priced giftshop and toilet facilities. This took us 2/3 hours in total and was money very well spent.

The Slieve Liag Cliffs, are a staggering height reaching up to 601 meters and they stand as one of Europe's tallest sea cliffs, nearly three times the height of the Cliffs of Moher! It takes roughly 30 minutes to walk from the Car Park up to the cliffs… they’re also buses running up and down the said route! Whichever way you decide to journey up, you’ll be greeted with a fantastic sight once there! + they’re refreshments served at the top from a little coffee/ice cream stand, gifts and a woollen wears stand. Definitely worth a visit!

We are walkers, the car park was full at the walk entrance, so we returned to the Visitors Centre car park where the regular every 20 minute bus service, (7E's per person return) takes you to the top of the Cliff viewing area. Great commentary by the drivers both on the way up and on the return. We had a delicious Lobster roll to share, about 16E's, expensive but absolutely delicious. There's a coffee / hot chocolate van as well as Zero alcohol beer on sale. We came, we saw, we ate and were back in the Visitors Centre in less than an hour.
