Burren

The western coast of Ireland is dramatic in its views and plant life. You look one way and you see the aqua waters of the Atlantic. You look inland, and you see the Burren.
The Burren is an ecological marvel located roughly between Lahinch to the south and the southern part of Galway Bay to the north. At one time, the Burren was a fertile and productive place but human habitation sometime in the distant past stripped the land of it's soft woods and soil. The irony is, today it is considered an ecological wonder. A wide range of plant life can be found in the Burren. See the next post for more info!
