Rural Recreation Programme
The Rural Recreation Programme works to support the development, maintenance and promotion of trail based outdoor recreation in County Donegal.
About the Programme
County Donegal is one of 13 regions in the country to have been allocated the services of a Rural Recreation Officer (RRO). Since 2008, Donegal’s RRO Inga Bock has been working with communities, landowners, local and national agencies to support the development, maintenance and promotion of trail based outdoor recreation opportunities in County Donegal for residents and tourists alike.
The programme is funded by the Department of Rural and Community Development and Fáilte Ireland.
