Clare’s Rock Hostel Ecotourism Package

An Interactive Family Friendly Burren Experience

Stay in an environmentally sustainable self catering hostel, run by a local family, and explore the Burren by foot or bicycle and learn to play a traditional Irish game as well!
We believe that we can lessen a visitor’s impact on the environment due to our commitment to sustainable energies, water conservation and recycling and by providing them with the information necessary to explore the Burren in a way that is protective of this unique environment.

The package can be tailored to suit individual families, couples and groups (6 to 30 persons) by prior arrangement.
(not more than15 persons per guide in walks)
Duration of package: Mid march to end of September. 
2-3 Nights are recommended.

Visitors can choose from a  menu of activities:

Most of our activities are based in nature and are aimed at keeping the cost for our guests to the minimum.
“More information is available on request from Clare’s Rock.”
