A lovely walk to get away from it all. Met very few people on this loop. Started off by going left out of Fanore beach car park, & took right turns there after until coming back to the carpark. Start off with road surface & then the climb starts on the grassy surface. & it is a climb, & just when you think you have reached the top, you go around the corner, & there is another little hill. But once you reach the top of that hill, it is downhill all the way home. Lovely views once you get back on the road surface heading back to the carpark. Took 3 hours, with about a 20 min stop for a picnic lunch.

Spectacular views on this walk. Truly amazing and well-worth taking a few hours out of your day to go on it. It is not too difficult but good walking runners or boots are definitely a must. There are quite a lot of boggy areas (even in dry weather) to cross over. This is definitely a must if in Doolin or nearby.

Beauty of The Burren Walks offer guided walking tours of the Burren.We pick you up from your accommodation (in the Doolin area)in our bus and drop you back after the walk. The walks are an excellent opportunity to discover the unique landscape that is the Burren. With our expert guide, walkers explore the fascinating history, geology and botany of the area. A walk with us is a walk to remember.

Incredible walks through the unique Burren, travelling over limestone roads and green paths. You will never forget the views.

This is by far and away my favourite walk. It's quite rugged, but it's just so different all along the way. Walking along beautiful tree-lined paths, through the forest, walking from one Burren stone to the next, a bit of climbing, a lake, 2 cairn burial mounds and a holy well! And then tea and cake with Harry the owner at the end. Can really highly recommend it. The rocks can be slipping if it's raining. Great for families but not for very young kids.

Have done the regular cliff walk a number of times and this makes a lovely change. The Napoleonic tower is closed at the moment but the views are still breathtaking. It's a bit of a pull up the hill for the infirm.

The whole drive on the pacific way was indeed pretty stunning! When we stopped on the Burren, we found a very beautiful scenery!! You'd better take a short walk (mind your steps and keep a bit away from the waves) in here to enjoy it fully!!

Great way to see the cliffs. Staff are very friendly and helpful (assisted me with my car after it broke down). I would highly recommend this as an alternative to the official visitor centre up the road which is busy and more expensive.
