About Malin

Malin sits at Ireland's most northerly point in County Donegal, marking where the Wild Atlantic Way ends at the edge of Europe. The village connects to Malin Head via the R238 from Carndonagh, with most visitors approaching from Letterkenny 45 kilometres south on the N13. A car is essential as public transport is scarce, and the few EV chargers require planning in this remote spot. The village post office stamps passports to prove you've reached Ireland's northern edge.
