This was one of my favourite areas in Ireland. County Clare is on the wild west side of the island and home to some of Ireland’s famous attractions. We stayed in the musical town of Doolin, took a ferry to awesome island Inishmore and rented bikes to visit the ancient cliff top fort of Dun Angus, checked out the Cliffs of Moher and hiked in the Burren, a fascinating area of limestone hills.

We rented bikes on Inishmore, one of the Aran Islands, and cycled over to the ancient cliff top fort of Dun Angus

It was obvious why they didn’t bother building a wall on this side
