Description
Cliffs of Glencolumbkille, County Donegal, Ireland
This high & extremely narrow headland is known as the ‘SturrallRidge’. Located in a very rural corner of Donegal it was a very tough location to reach due to the weight of all my gear, plus it was the warmest day of the year! Although it was well worth the effort on arrival. Unique in every way possible this ridge is totally mesmerising. Stretching directly off the mainland out to sea, it rises to the height of 750m yet is under 1m wide on certain parts, with an almost vertical drop off on each side straight into the sea far below!
In the backdrop you can see the coastline of ‘Port’ leading around to an area of sea stacks nicknamed “The Land of the Giants”. This is actually the remotest part of Ireland you can find! The largest stack you see is ‘Tormore Island’ which is Ireland’s highest sea stack at 148 meters in height.
