Paths around the Cliffs can be uneven and slippery, so solid hiking shoes or boots are recommended.

Coastal winds are strong and persistent; dress in layers that protect against wind chill.

Plan for sudden weather changes

Weather along the western Irish coast can shift rapidly—pack rain gear even on sunny days.

Allow time for photography

The Cliffs’ dramatic views and Burren’s unique landscape offer excellent photo ops at multiple stops.
