More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off a grey coach into Atlantic wind that seems to push you toward the edge — the Cliffs of Moher rise, sheer and uncompromising, over 700 feet above a churn of sea. The visitor centre sits tucked behind the cliff-line, a practical base for maps, viewpoints and the occasional brisk cup of tea before you move along paved paths that stretch like a spine along Clare’s coastline.
