Hike and Bike Activities
Walking holidays are one of the best ways to experience the Burren. Walkers come back to the Burren over and over again attracted by a network of quiet country roads and lanes with limestone hills and ancient hazel woods that offer a glimpse of past worlds.
For serious walkers, there are many well-organised walking tours with routes & walking trails traversing the Burren’s most unique landscape (links below). Whether heading off alone or with a group of friends on one of the network of green roads in the region, or taking part in a guided tour with one of the many walking specialists ( listings below) in the area, you are sure to enjoy your time. Sturdy boots, a good map, some basic supplies and plenty of enthusiasm are all you really need.
A number of wonderful waymarked looped walks have been launched in 2009 around the Burren.
Details of these trails can be found on www.shannonregiontrails.ie,
