Catholic Church of Our Lady of LourdesChurch/chapel · 1388 yd

Explorer Tom Catholic Church of Our Lady of Lourdes in Kilmoon West is having a bit of a moment with its limestone, isn’t it? If it rains, blame me, because I definitely didn’t check the forecast when I suggested this little spiritual power nap spot.

Site of Lisdoonvarna CastleCastle, tower house · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Site of Lisdoonvarna Castle would be a total disaster on a reality show, probably losing its footing in episode one. It’s a bit of a mess now, but ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.

Cahermacnaghten CashelHeritage attraction · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Cahermacnaghten Cashel is a place of ancient significance, where the echoes of history linger in County Clare's heritage.

Corpus Christi Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Rathbaun is trying very hard to look important with its tower and spire. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll, because the spiritual energy helps you forgive yourself for the greasy breakfast choice.

Slieve ElvaMountain / peak · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Slieve Elva, a peak that’s as isolated as the bog land that surrounds it in County Clare.

FaunarooskaCave · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Faunarooska sits on the Burren, near Black Head; I picture dramatic cliffs and winds that make your hair stand up.

Wedge tomb in Faunarooska (rathborney Ed)Wedge tomb · 2.9 mi

Explorer Tom Wedge tomb in Faunarooska is sick of being asked if it’s still standing, considering it completely collapsed ages ago and stopped answering questions. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Faunarooska Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 3.1 mi

Explorer Tom Faunarooska Castle in Faunarooska is planning its retirement on the slopes of Slieve Elva. It looks like it’s napping with one eye open at the Aran Islands. Hum something sad nearby, it adds atmosphere.

Grave YardGraveyard · 3.9 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Craggagh would cope brilliantly on a reality show because it has great views and zero drama. St. Onchon built it ages ago and left it to rot stylishly. Practise your Irish on it, it won't correct you.

Doolin CaveCave · 4.1 mi

Explorer Tom Doolin Cave stands proud in County Clare, and I can practically hear the sea echoing off its stone walls.

High CrossVisitor attraction · 4.3 mi

Explorer Tom High Cross has me thinking it’s the same as the other High Cross, but I’m still confused.

Burren Centre KilfenoraVisitor information · 4.4 mi

Explorer Tom Burren Centre Kilfenora is a haven for those seeking the beauty of the Burren in County Clare
