The aim of this trail is to preserve local history. Each area on the map contains QR codes which will bring the viewer to the Dúchoraidh/ Doochary website. The website is in Irish with English translation.
It has links to the village's YouTube channel with interviews with older residents, videos from the 1980s-1990s collected by Fr Eddie Gallagher and the late Manus Elliott.
Further information regarding villagers who immigrated to the Americas will be added shortly. The website also features local tourism accommodation, artisans and businesses.
The beautiful artwork of the map itself has been done by local artist Nicola McGovern. Cumann na Forbairtha na Dúchoraidh wishes to thank her and the support of Donegal County Council Tourism Office, Glenties Councillors and Aodh Mac Ruairi of Coiste Pleanála Teanga na Gaeltachta Láir.
The website is available at Duchoraidh.com.
