3. Glenveagh National Park

Nestled in the remote heart of the beautiful County Donegal, Glenveagh National Park is the second largest National Park in Ireland. John Adair, the ruthless mid-19th century landowner who once owned an estate here, infamously evicted hundreds of the area’s inhabitants for spoiling his view! After this colourful start, the estate was eventually donated to the Irish Nation in the late 20th century and opened as a National Park in 1984.
