Teach Mhici Oig is beside both the mountains and the sea. Close to the magnificent Gelnveagh National Park, the area is rich in beauty, heritage and folklore. Stunning geographical features include a mountain range which is ideal for hill walking and climbing, lakes for fishing, bog lands for wildlife and much more. With quiet country roads for cycling and an old railway kline for walking along there is no end to the possibilities for outdoor entertainment, whatever the weather and all can be followed with a 'pint' in one of many of the traditional style local pubs. There are many cultural attractions too such as Ionad Cois Luiche - a lakeside folkpark, the art gallery and museum at Churchill, the castle at Glenbeigh, a heritage centre dedicated to St.Colmcille and archaeoloigal sites too numerous to mention! There is something to suit all tastes.
