Our ramble today meanders around backroads in the much less travelled, but still stunningly scenic little townlands of Donegal. We are over between Trumman Lake and Rath Mountain, east of Laghey, West of Pettigo. These photos can not convey the serenity of actually walking these roads- the birdsong and the distant bleat of lambs and the buzzing of the bees were the only sounds, butterflies danced merrily, skirting off the dandelions and marsh marigolds, and when the odd tractor or van passed us by, it was with a friendly salute and possibly a ‘who’s this one now, with her dog and her camera’! You must put a walk on roads like this on your bucket list - no noise, no crowds, no queues, nothing but peace and tranquility. Donegal.
