Visit the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland



Simply unmissable, the Cliffs of Moher are among the most beautiful cliffs in Ireland



Located in the southwest of the Burren, in County Clare, they are a mecca for Irish tourism.
They will amaze you with their beauty, which extends over more than 8 km long, for a height reaching up to 215 meters high!

Enough to make you dizzy! Don't miss a single moment of the panorama of these rocky giants overlooking the Atlantic Ocean: the show is truly breathtaking! Without any doubt one of the most beautiful spots in Ireland!

The panorama is seen from the O'Brien Tower



The visit starts between Liscannor and Doolin, on the edge of the R478.
A parking lot (8€ per person and not per vehicle) will allow you to get rid of your car, and then discover without further delay the magnificent views overlooking the Cliffs. 

A very wide stony access ramp will lead you to O'Brien's Tower, a small tower built-in 1835, overlooking the landscape. It is located on the highest point of view of the site, and is often the place where tourists take pictures!

Once you arrive, get ready for a breathtaking view! But be careful, it blows hard up there: the spot is very exposed, and deserves a little sweater and a windbreaker for more comfort.
Whatever the weather, the show is very impressive: the Cliffs of Moher plunge vertically into the depths of the ocean. The rock is dark black, deeply marked by the erosion of the sea. 

And depending on the weather, the waves come crashing majestically against these stone giants.
If you look a little further towards the horizon, you will distinguish the famous Aran Islands (the island of Inishmore, the island of Inishmaan, and the island of Inisheer).
 And on a clear day, you will even have the chance to see the high landscapes of Connemara, with its mountains and hills tinged with forests and peat bogs.

A short walk along the cliffs



If you like the show, and if you want to discover more, don't hesitate to walk along the 8 km of cliffs.

Small paths allow you to walk along with them, offering you magnificent views of these exceptional geological masses.
However, be careful not to walk too close to the edge: these paths have not been developed and do not have barriers like the viewpoint at O'Brien Tower.

Many accidents have occurred due to carelessness. In particular, people who have approached the edge of the trail while trying to take a selfie.
The fall is unforgiving and deadly. Also, keep your children close to you, and avoid steep areas: the rock crumbles with time and the surroundings are not safe).

This short walk will allow you to discover the natural wonders of the site: its fauna and flora are renowned throughout the world for their diversity and richness. 

The Cliffs of Moher are home to a large number of seabirds, as well as a variety of plant life lining the cliffs. During the nesting season, the Cliffs are even populated by cormorants, guillemots, razorbills, and puffins!

Plan to spend a good half-day touring the Cliffs of Moher... and a good camera, ready to be drawn to immortalize the moment!
