Errigal Youth Hostel - REOPENING SOON
Nestled beneath Errigal Mountain in the scenic lakeside village of Dunlewey, County Donegal, Errigal Hostel offers a stunning base for exploring the Northwest of Ireland. Overlooking Lake Nacung and surrounded by the Derryveagh Mountains, this modern hostel features floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase the breathtaking landscape. Located along the Wild Atlantic Way, it’s just 20 minutes from Donegal Airport and 30 minutes from Letterkenny, making it the ideal gateway to nearby beaches, hiking trails, and Glenveagh National Park.
With over 45 years of history in the local Gaeltacht community, Errigal Hostel offers a welcoming and eco-friendly stay in mezzanine-style dorms or en-suite private rooms. Guests can enjoy sunrise or sunset views over the mountains, relax in the cosy snug, or cook in the fully equipped self-catering kitchen. The hostel’s commitment to sustainability, along with its knowledgeable bilingual staff, ensures an enriching experience for outdoor lovers and adventure seekers. From hill-walking to surfing, the team can guide you to the best activities in what National Geographic once named the “coolest place on the planet.”
