Encyclopedia > Derryveagh Mountains

The Derryveagh Mountains are the major mountain range in County Donegal, Republic of Ireland. They make up much of the landmass of Donegal, and are the area of Ireland with the lowest population density. They seperate the coastal parts of Donegal such as Dungloe and Glenties from the inland centres such as Ballybofey and Letterkenny.
