==Geography==

Errigal is the most southern, steepest and highest of the mountain chain, called the "[[Seven Sisters, Donegal|Seven Sisters]]". The Seven Sisters includes [[Muckish]], [[Crocknalaragagh]], [[Aghla Beg]], [[Ardloughnabrackbaddy]], [[Aghla More]], [[Mackoght]] and Errigal. The nearest peak is Mackoght (from Irish: Mac Uchta,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.logainm.ie/en/1396655|title=Mac Uchta/Mackoght|website=Logainm.ie}}</ref> meaning "son of the mountain-breast") which is also known as Little Errigal or Wee Errigal ({{lga|an Earagail Bheag}}).

Errigal is known for the pinkish glow of its [[quartzite]] in the setting sun.<ref name="mountainviews"/> Another noted quality is the ever-changing shape of the mountain depending on what direction you view it from. Errigal was voted 'Ireland's Most Iconic Mountain' by ''Walking & Hiking Ireland'' in 2009.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.walkingandhikingireland.com/irelands-iconic-mountains-number-1-errigal/|title=Walking Ireland's Iconic Mountains – Number 1: Errigal|date=24 October 2009 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120322161502/www.walkingandhikingireland.com/?p=3 |archive-date=22 March 2012}}</ref>
