Bealach na Gaeltachta/The Gaeltacht Way /Slí na Rosann
Tá forbairt déanta ag Comhairle Contae Dhún na nGall agus Údarás na Gaeltachta ar chiansiúlóidí i nGaeltacht Dhún na nGall agus na hoileáin de réir caighdeán náisiúnta an ‘National Waymarked Ways Advisory Committee’. Tá gach siúlóid 40-50 km ar fhad agus tá ceangal idir triúr de na siúlóidí. Leanann Slí na Rosann cosáin agus bealaí cois na farraige agus amuigh faoin tuath. Tá píosaí de Shlí na Finne agus Slí Cholmchille nach bhfuil ar bhealach ar bith ach ag trasnú cnoic ar thalamh portaigh. Tá radharcanna áilne den chontae le feiceáil ó na siúlóidí seo uilig.
Bealach na Gaeltachta, Dún na nGall is a set of long distance walking routes which have been developed as a national Waymarked Way by Donegal County Council and Údarás na Gaeltachta in association with Bord Fáilte. These routes have been developed in the Donegal Gaeltacht and islands. A total of 290 kms provides the walker with many opportunities to sample the unique landscape, culture and heritage of the region.
There are four primary circular routes. Three of the routes are linked by a walk. Slí an Earagail and Slí na Rossan have links to nearby islands where waymarked walks have also been developed.
Most sections of Slí an Earagail and Slí na Rosann follow tracks or minor roads. Parts of Slí na Finne and Slí Cholmcille cross upland or bogland areas with no path but provide excellent landscape and seascape views.
