Burren National ParkVisitor information · 1663 ydExplorer Tom Burren National Park is a wild sanctuary where nature's secrets are waiting to be discovered in County Clare
Dermot and Granias BedWedge tomb · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Dermot and Granias Bed in Creevagh is where two legends went to sleep and never woke up, probably because the mattress was terrible. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.
CahercommaunFairy fort / stone ringfort · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Cahercommaun is a triple-walled fortress that looks like it survived a zombie attack and then complained about the mess. It’s sitting on a ravine edge, ready to drop you if you look at it wrong. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.

Father Ted's HouseHeritage attraction · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Father Ted's House is a nostalgic glimpse into Ireland's comedy heritage, with the exterior shots of the show preserved in County Clare.
Glenquin HouseFarm house · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Glenquin House in Poulnalour was used for Father Ted, so it’s basically a shrine to bad puns. It would post a selfie on social media with the caption 'Living my best parochial life.' Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost or just weird.
Saint Joseph's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Saint Joseph's Catholic Church in Killinaboy is now an outbuilding, which means its New Year’s resolution was to stop being holy and start storing things. It’s got a square-headed opening from 1975 that looks like a yawn. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name like 'Grumpy'.
Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Castle in ruins near Carran Turlough is secretly proud of the potato growing next to its foundation because the castle is doing worse. It controls a routeway but mostly just controls your sense of direction. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.
Inchiquin Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 3.1 miExplorer Tom Inchiquin Castle is perched on a rocky bluff, looking down its nose at the lough below. Built by a king, ruined by time, and still acting like it's the center of the universe. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.
Inchiquin IslandIslet · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Inchiquin Island! A small islet with a name that sounds like it could be part of a royal lineage, what secrets does it keep in County Clare?
Rock IslandIsland · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Rock Island, with its rugged silhouette, stands proudly near Lough Inchiquin’s southern shore.
Poulnabrone - Burren GeositeVisitor information · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Poulnabrone - Burren Geosite has me thinking it's a place where the earth has a special shape; the account doesn't say what's special about it.
The Portal TombVisitor information · 4.8 miExplorer Tom The Portal Tomb has me checking the name twice; the account will not tell me if a rat ever set paw here
