When planning a visit to Ireland, several places might interest you as a tourist. For the outdoors lovers, Ireland offers breathtaking scenery. From the wild countryside to the mesmerizing UNESCO world heritage sites, Ireland has a lot to offer. One of the places you can’t miss when you visit Ireland is the mighty cliffs of Moher. The hills are one of the most visited natural attractions with a towering height of 214 meters above the Atlantic Ocean. The imposing cliffs allow incredible sights to areas such as the Galway Bay and the Maum Turk Mountains. Another spectacular site is the Ring of Kerry which includes the rugged Beara Peninsula as well as the Kerry way.

Moreover, the Giant’s Causeway, which is Northern Islands only site listed by the UNESCO, is evidence of the wonders of Mother Nature. The natural phenomenon has over 40,000 basalt rock columns in the shape of a polygon. These rocks were formed as a result of the ancient volcanic landscape. The rock columns stretch along the coastline taking the form of a series of huge stepping stones. Also listed as a UNESCO world heritage site, the Skellig Islands consist of a pair of rocky mounds rising from the sea. These two islands, Skellig Michael and Little Skellig host an array of birdlife such as the Cormorants, Gannets, and the Herring Gulls. Apart from that, the Aran Islands are one of the few areas where one can experience the typical Irish village away from the modern developments in the mainland. The language spoken here is Gaelic, and the communities live in small gatherings.

One of the must visit areas in Ireland is the Glenveagh National Park. It attracts hikers and fisherman from all over the country. The park boasts of habiting the formerly lost golden eagle as well as Ireland’s largest herd of red deer. For a person who wants to see a landscape full of fissures, and rocky mounds, the Burren is the perfect place to visit. This scenery was formed after years of acid erosion that shaped the karst landscape and made it appear like a jigsaw of grikes and Clints. Besides, the Connemara National Park is a must visit place when planning an expedition visit to Ireland. The park is famously known for its native Connemara ponies as well as the wild countryside. The Glendalough is one of Ireland’s most famous monastic sites in the Wicklow Mountains National Park. The picturesque scenery replete with vast lakes makes it a site to behold.
