Many, but not all, of these routes are signposted and do not require local knowledge of hill walking whilst other routes will test the skills of the more experienced. The flagship walks are Donegal's two national Waymarked Ways: the Bealach na Gaeltachta network is 290km in length and comprises four main loops which stretch along the county's western seaboard and the three islands of Arranmore, Tory and Gola. In the southwest, the Bluestack Way winds its way for around 60km through the heart of the Bluestack Mountain range.
