Itinerary description
"Deep in the heart of the Burren lies the mountain of Mullaghmore, one of the most sublimely beautiful landscapes in Ireland. Embodying the very best of the Burren, with its breathtaking views, intriguing geological features, rich flora and evocative monuments, it is a place that never fails to impress" (Burrenbeo). This walk follows the blue marked trail on and around the mountain with the addition of an adventurous alternative. Though leading through some rough terrain you may expect unusual rock formations and fossils which you don't find anywhere else in the Burren. Use extreme caution on the whole track and watch your step. Finish the experience with a tea & scones in Father Ted's House, nearby.

Easy to follow
Scenery
Moderate
Bel itinéraire. Pas de problème tant que l'on suit le sentier bleu.
La partie " aventure " sur la fin pas faisable car il y avait trop d'eau pour traverser le ruisseau.
Merci
