In the middle of the "rocky cliffs" of County Clare in the west of Ireland, leads the Burren Way. A particularly beautiful view one has after the rise of Ballyvaughan. This place invites you to have a picnic break. In clear, clear weather you can see the three offshore Aran Islands exactly as if it were just a stone's throw to get there.
