Self-Guided Cliff Coast Cycles – Kerry & Clare

Set off on an extraordinary Self-Guided Cycle Tour through County Clare and the mystical Burren, where ancient landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and breathtaking vistas converge to create an unforgettable Irish adventure. These tours invite you to explore one of Ireland’s most iconic regions at your own pace, with detailed route maps, expert local insights, and hand-selected accommodations ensuring a seamless journey from start to finish. Begin your adventure in a charming town in County Clare before cycling along scenic country roads that lead you through quaint villages, rolling green fields, and dramatic cliffside paths overlooking the Wild Atlantic. As you traverse this enchanting region, the contrast between the rugged coastline and the stark beauty of the Burren’s unique limestone pavement becomes strikingly apparent, offering a visual feast for nature lovers and history enthusiasts alike.

As you pedal deeper into the heart of the Burren, immerse yourself in a landscape that has remained virtually unchanged for thousands of years. Marvel at ancient dolmens, historic stone circles, and mysterious cairns that tell the story of Ireland’s prehistoric past, all set against a backdrop of wildflowers and sparse, stony fields. Experience the warmth of authentic Irish hospitality in local inns and traditional pubs, where hearty cuisine and friendly conversation add a cultural layer to your journey. Whether you’re tackling challenging ascents or enjoying leisurely rides along tranquil lanes, every day on this tour promises new discoveries—from hidden coves along the Atlantic to secret corners of the Burren steeped in legend and lore.
