n the Irish language Dunree translates as Dun Fhraoigh, meaning, “Fort of the Heather,” indicating that is was an important defensive location throughout history. Today however, its stunning natural beauty, abundant wildlife, military museum, coastal artillery display and “The most scenic coffee shop in Ireland” are drawing increasing numbers of visitors to one of Inishowen’s most beautiful locations.

Great paths with fantastic views combined with exploration of the old army camp. The Coffee Cup cafe is a great treat after the walks.
