Activity itinerary

Amazing Grace Park
  • 10m
Once a piece of wasteland, the stretch of land has now been completely transformed with a stunning water feature, plants and flowers, pathways and benches including an anchor-shaped viewing area looking over Lough Swilly and Buncrana pier. Here we'll start to hear the fascinating storey of John Newton, the redeemed Slave Master.
Buncrana Lighthouse
  • 5m
This little lighthouse stood at this location for 133 years between 1876 until 2009 after which it was condemned to the scrap yard.
Amazing Grace Viewing Platform, Walk and Park!
  • 10m
A beautiful viewing point overlooking Lough Swilly. Here the guide will finish the enthralling storey of John Newton's road to redemption, from slave master to devoted minister.
Swan Park
  • 20m
A park gifted to the town by Henry Swan featuring a beautiful riverside walk along the Crana. We'll walk through the park to exit at the other side of Buncrana Town.
O'Doherty's Keep & Buncrana Castle
  • 30m
You'll get a beautiful view of the 6-arch bridge over the Crana river, perfect for photographs. You'll then walk over the bridge to Buncrana Castle and the old 14th century Norman Keep, all the while being told the fascinating history of Cahir O'Doherty - the teenager rebel who was decapitated by the crown forces.
Buncrana
  • 15m
In the town you'll stop at the Market Square. This is the location of a 1922 shooting which killed two young girls during a bank robbery at the Royal Bank, now the AIB. Many regard these to have been the first shots fired in the Civil War, between the pro and anti-Treaty IRA. This is also the perfect time to visit the popular sweetstore 'Munchies'.
