Dungiven is located on the main Derry to Belfast route nestled at the foot of Benbradagh Mountain in the Sperrin Mountain range, an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Glenshane Pass is next to Dungiven, a busy mountain pass where the road rises to over 1,000ft. The small town is home to Dungiven Castle, built in the 17th century with most of the current building added in the 1830's. Dungiven Castle is currently a 4*Star hotel with 22 acres of pretty landscaped gardens overlooking the Sperrin Mountains.
