Wildlife holidays in Ireland
The Cliffs of Mohar
The west coast of Ireland is justly famous for its wild and beautiful landscapes and its exciting birds and fascinating botany. The rugged coastline, that challenges the Atlantic Ocean, offers a remarkable variety of coastal landscapes with its mix of cliffs, beaches, bays and esturaries, and these inevitably attract a huge number and variety of waders, wildfowl and seabirds, together with migrants and rare summer visitors like the Corncrake. Add to this the remarkable wildflowers and endemic plants of the limestone pavement in the Burren, the region's friendly people, relaxed lifestyle, quiet roads, fine food, excellent music and the perfect pint of Guinness at the end of the day and you have all the ingredients for a first class holiday.
Naturetrek tours to Ireland
Naturetrek offer two contrasting weekends in Ireland, including a botanical weekend looking at the famous wildflowers of the limestone pavement of the Burren (whilst enjoying superb hospitality at a fine village hotel) and a short birdwatching break to Co Mayo designed to give the group a good chance of seeing Corncrake amongst a range of other exciting species.
