Clare Glens

Overview

1h
The Clare Glens is a wooded area along the banks of the Clare River, which separates counties Limerick and Tipperary. The scenery is breathtaking, with wild dense forest combined with the calm rushing of the crystal clear waters. The Glens consist of a picturesque red sandstone gorge through which the Clare River flows and displays numerous waterfalls. These loop walks are part of the network of National Looped Walks and are marked using the standard National Looped Walk directional arrows.

There are two route options on this loop. You’ll meet a wooden footbridge along the trail where the 2km Nature Loop turns rights and brings you back to the trailhead. The 4km Glen Loop proceeds straight ahead. Whichever one you choose, you’re in for a treat on this family-friendly mini-adventure!
A wonderful walk in a unique area of natural beauty. If you are lucky you might spot squirrels amongst the trees and lots of other wildlife. Bring your camera as this are many great opportunities to get a beautiful picture
