Burren National Park
Witness the natural wonder of Burren National Park, an area that is both rocky and fertile. "Burren" comes from an Irish word meaning "a rocky place," which fits because the area is full of exposed limestone. You can tour the karst hills of the region, which are rich in historic and archeological sites, including several megalithic tombs, portal dolmens, and the nearby Corcomroe Abbey. Leave time to visit the 1,500 hectare (3,707 acre) national park, located in the southeastern corner of the region.

Beautiful spot and well worth a hike up Mullaghmore. Trails well marked. Lots to see here and you might not even make it to the Cliffs!

I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. It is much more stunning and interesting than the pictures I had seen. Surprisingly, the flowers growing there were beautiful.

Stunning hikes. Beautiful scenery. I saw rainbows everywhere. There were like nine different kinds of weather in one afternoon so bring all kinds of different clothing. Highly recommend!!!!

I found fossils at the top! If you like that sort of thing, this place is good for finding them. I found my first amonite here. I don't do the spandex and two sticks sort of hiking. I wear my leather boots, which have good grip but aren't from mountain wearhouse. The 'red route' was easy enough for myself and my partner - neither of us are that sporty and the view from the top was a blessing! We were lucky with the sunlight and it suited the heat there. The bleak hills became like a desert. There were lovely goats all over the place and strange stones about.
