Walking the Burren
Guided walks endeavour to promote a
greater appreciation of the Burren - Ireland’s most precious
landscape. They celebrate the floral diversity, extraordinary
archaeological wealth and unique agricultural system of the Burren.
Groups are deliberately small in number in order to make as low an
impact as possible on the terrain. They are also committed to best
conservation principles and believe that the region is best
appreciated on foot at a natural rhythm in the company of an expert
local guide.

Music
Any visit to Ireland is incomplete if you do not experience a
traditional Irish music session. The art of Irish music has been
handed down over the centuries from family to family and it is very

hundreds of pubs throughout the year, and the festival calendar has a
wide range of Fleadhs (music festivals) to choose from. |
