Did You Know?

  • The Irish name Cnoc Mhic Greagoir translates as MacGregor's Hill; while MacGregor is a quintessentially Scottish surname, its presence here reflects the historical ties and migrations between the North of Ireland and the Scottish Highlands.
  • Standing as a Marilyn, the hill possesses a topographic prominence of at least 150 metres, ensuring that the views from the top feel much more significant than its 335-metre elevation might suggest.
  • The summit offers a strategic look-out over the complex Donegal coastline, specifically the deep inlets of Lough Swilly and Mulroy Bay, with the flat-topped silhouette of Muckish often visible to the west.
