Walk the Pilgrim Path to Sliabh Liag – a walk said to cure headaches, with a cosy pub near the finishing line

The 'Pilgrim Path' is said to cure headaches...

Pól Ó Conghaile

Is there anything better than a winter walk with a cosy pub at the finishing line?

Travelling the Sliabh Liag peninsula in Co Donegal recently, that’s exactly what I found. The Pilgrim Path is an out-and-back trail of around 8km, taking in ocean views from some of Europe’s tallest sea cliffs, before returning you to The Rusty Mackerel, with its glowing turf fire, in Teelin.
