Limestone pavement, Burren National Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Burren (Gaelic: Bhoireann, meaning "rocky place") is known for its harsh, stony beauty. The hiking trail leads over the limestones and sometimes you have to look for the path or the next sign. Absolutely something special.

Limestone Terraces of Burren National Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

In the middle of the Burren you hike through the protected area of the Burren National Park. It extends over 15 square kilometers in the middle of the typical karst landscape. Above all, the environment here is under protection because there are a variety of rare plants and animals such as butterflies. The paths are often not steep, but due to the different stone formations you should always pay attention to where you step.
