Discovering Donegal by Camper Van

There’s a special kind of magic to Donegal when you see it through a camper van windscreen. This wild, unspoiled county on Ireland’s northwest coast offers stunning sea cliffs, sleepy harbours, golden beaches, and winding roads that seem to lead straight into a postcard. Over one week, two travellers packed up their van and hit the Wild Atlantic Way to explore Donegal’s camper-friendly sites, spectacular scenery, and community-driven tourism.

The result? A road trip rich in memories—and full of practical lessons for anyone thinking of doing the same.
