Plants and flowers from the mediterranian and arctic regions that would normally not grow together in the same lattitude do so in this important distinctive landscape of limestone hills and fertile pockets of grassland. 7 lakes can be seen from the top of Ballyportry, and there is lake fishing near by and deep sea angling from Liscannor, a harbour beside the 800 foot Cliffs of Moher.
The Burren is an important geological and botanical nature reserve as well as a bird sanctuary and archaeological paradise.
