It is within the Gaeltacht, an Irish-speaking area, in the west of the county. Overlooked by Aghla (589m, 1961 ft) and Screig Mountains, its main attraction is Шаблон:Lang, the Fintown Railway (Donegal's only operational narrow gauge railway), which runs along the length of Lough Finn.[2] The village was named after a mythological woman, Fionngheal, who drowned in the lake after attempting to save her wounded brother Feargamhain.[3]
