Places to see
Situated in the midst of one of the most unique landscapes in Ireland, there are lots of beautiful attractions to visit. We've collected a few of these here to help you plan your stay.Aillwee Cave
Aillwee Cave, Ballyvaughan, is Ireland's Premier Showcave and has over 160,000 visitors each year. While at Ailwee visit the Birds of Prey and Education Centre displaying the ancient art of Falconry.
The Burren
The Burren is a vast expanse of exposed Limestone Pavement. This unique panorama of grey provides such a stark contrast to Ireland’s proverbial ‘forty shades of green’. The Burren hills are teeming with such geological oddities as labyrinthine cave systems, disappearing streams and lakes, tiered hillsides and oddly dissected pavements. The Burren hosts a spectacular array of over 70% of Ireland’s native flora. For some it is the archaeology that is of most interest in the Burren, with over 500 ring forts and over 80 known Neolithic tombs. For others it is just a place to relax, enjoy the scenery or take in one of the many beautiful walks.
Cliffs of Moher
This is one Ireland top visitor attraction. The Cliffs are over 214m high and extent to 8km along the Clare coast. Also visit the Atlantic Edge Exhibition, a selection of interactive exhibits and displays showing flora and fauna of the Burren and the Cliffs
Doolin Cave
Recently opened, Doolin cave boasts the largest stalactite in the northern hemisphere. The Great Stalactite measures 7m in length.
