Meet Your Guide

About

My name is Seamus Doohan. I was born and raised in the Gaeltacht area of Falcarragh in Co. Donegal, under the shadow of the majestic Derryveagh mountains, and within a whisper of the rugged coastline of the Wild North Atlantic.
As someone who has a passion for the outdoors, it was inevitable that I would take to hill walking.  From an early age, I have spent many enjoyable days roaming and exploring the hills, mountains and coastline of the region and have gone on to become an experienced hillwalking guide. I have built up an intimate knowledge of the landscape and can choose from a host of enticing and exceptional routes.

I’d like to invite you to join me,so you too can experience some of the most beautiful, invigorating and magical walks in Europe

Learn About Donegal’s Flora and Fauna

The region is teeming with animal and plant life. I can enlighten you about the flora and fauna of the area. On some walks we may see deer, golden eagles, foxes, badgers and other animal life. On coastal walks especially during the summer months, it is not uncommon to see basking sharks, porpoises or dolphins. We will come across many plants, flowers and insect life.

I have a thorough knowledge of the rich culture and unique history of the region. I can tell you about the place names and landmarks we come across during the walk, and share stories, history, mythology, social history and folklore that relate to them. You can learn a bit about the locality, and there is sure to be a few local anecdotes and yarns thrown in. You can even learn a cúpla focal Gaeilge!
