Today we visited the Stone Fort of Grianán of Aileach which sits on a hilltop in Inishowen just north of Letterkenny. The view from Aileach is breathtaking. The glistening waters of Lough Foyle and Lough Swilly are clear, as is the form of the entire peninsula.

The origins of the Grianán of Aileach fort are dated back to 1700 BC. The round fort is built largely without mortar. The interior has three terraces and wooden structures were built against the terraces to provide accommodation. The outline of Bronze Age or Iron Age ramparts can be seen below the fort.
