The Burren

The Burren: Jagged Limestone Trails & Ancient Megalithic Tombs

4.8 (30595)

Forget the green rolling hills; this place is basically Mars with more rain. Spend at least two hours wandering the limestone karst pavement near Poulnabrone Dolmen. It feels eerie, quiet, and completely alien. Don't waste time on the big bus tours from Galway that just drive through. Rent a car instead to explore the backroads properly. If you want a guided hike, book the Aillwee Cave trip—it's worth the price for the subterranean geology alone.

Address: The Burren National Park, Oughtdarra, Clare
