Away To Me Sheepdog Demonstrations

Located on the stunning sea cliffs in the nearby village of Malinbeg, Away to Me Sheepdog Demonstrations offers visitors an unforgettable glimpse into the rich agricultural heritage of southwest Donegal. This small, family-run farm is home to a talented team of border collies, each expertly trained to work in harmony with their handlers to herd sheep across the rugged terrain. The demonstrations provide a captivating showcase of the skill, intelligence, and deep bond between the dog and its caller, a tradition that has been passed down through generations.

Visitors of all ages can enjoy the easy-going atmosphere, making it a perfect outing for families, couples, groups, or anyone looking to connect with the land and its traditions.
