Fort Dunree

Great Stop in County Donegal!!! This was my fourth visit to Fort Dunree, but the first for my girlfriend. I had the honor to tour it previously with a member of the Irish Defense Forces, who had been stationed there in the 1950s. The history of the area and the views are not to be missed. We highly recommend walking to the top of Fort Dunree to the "big guns". You don't have to be a history buff to thoroughly enjoy this gem on the coast of Lough Swilly.

Amazing location We went with our dogs and loved it!! Spectacular views and such a beautiful setting. The drive there was also superb with breath taking scenery. Visiting here is a must if you are in the area.

Well worth a visit The actual fort is not open to visit yet(we knew that before we went) . We had a lovely time doing the walks around the fort. The views are stunning and breathtaking. We came across a few local artists doing a few activities in old parts and they were fantastic. It was quiet when we were there which was great. We wandered at our leisure. It was great to see the tanks and cannons up close. I will definitely come back. The drive up to the fort is fabulous too and there is loads of parking and toilet facilities.

Fascinating historical experience Very interesting look at an important piece of Irish history. The military memorabilia collection is extensive but it would be good if someone could label it all. Also, if you want to do the VR experience it was out of order

Great day out & really interesting attraction Super day out at Fort Dunree & a lovely walk around with some spectacular scenery. Took the dog with us on the walk. Our son loved the exhibition & exploring the fort.

A gem of a place for views Awesome place, amazing views. No need to pay to go into museum. You can stretch your legs and climb around this old military encampment. Alot of the buildings have fallen into disrepair and there is a weird reindeer statue in the middle which is a bit wickerman if truth be told but place well worth a visit for the scenery, the nice able around the fort and the chance to see dolphins. We saw loads on them in the bay - you can see across to Portsalon - super place.
