Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This hike can't possibly be properly photographed or even described. It was just absolutely stunning from start to finish. It is a fairly challenging hike that takes you up & over different types of terrain. Took us 2.5 hours to complete. Wear shoes/boots with excellent gripping. We had perfect weather but I cannot imagine how slippery the walk would have been in the rain. The trail is very well cared for and well marked. Be sure to swing by the farm house before you leave the area. Unfortunately, we missed out on meeting the owner due to timing but we did get to sign the guest book and take a look around. Very welcoming! An absolute must if you love hiking, animals and wish to experience something unique.

    It was a long distance look at the house but still nice to see. We had some fun interactions with other people and it was an enjoyable experience.

    Tucked away below the Burren mountains lies this beautifully preserved 10th Century monastic site. Secluded away for generations this monastic site receives little visitor footfall.

    We enjoyed our return trip to the Burren and I am always in awe of the rugged beauty of the area. A fund drive is leaving the Burren and heading up cork screw road towards the cliffs.

    My gps took me to the end of the road somewhere in the Burren. I was expecting a visitor centre but their is none. I plugged in Burren Center and it took me to a tourist centre where the lady was very helpful. When I got the the trails, there were about a dozen cars parked along the road. I did manage to go on the purple farm trail which was not one of the trails on the website. I met a few goats on the hike. The first few kilometers were pleasant but once you get on the rocks walking is difficult and the trail is hard to follow.
