Glocca Morra B&B The Cliffs of Moher/The Burren

A full day trip through the Burren to the Cliffs of Moher is a
must see while visiting County Clare in Ireland.

From Glocca Morra, turn left out of the drive towards
Scarriff. Follow this road to Tuamgraney and turn left on
the R352 in the direction of Ennis. Before entering Ennis
there is a first roundabout for the N18. Turn right in the

offramp for the N85. Follow the signs for the N85 and
Ennistymon. Stay on the N85 to Fountain Cross and turn
right onto the R476 to Corofin. Follow through Killinaboy
and after about 3 km there will be a turn to the right for the
R480 and the Gleninsheen and Poulnabrone Megalithic
Tombs. This is the heart of the Burren. After visiting the
dolmens, follow the R480 to Ballyvaughan. Follow signs
for the R477 through Murroogh and Fanore on the way to
