We consistently choose Gregans Castle for our stays, positioning ourselves perfectly for walks across the limestone pavements. These outings occur just before dinner, an optimal time to feel the singular terrain as evening light deepens. This particular timing sets the tone for our entire visit.
This initial week of longer days stands apart from later spring, bringing extended light by seven thirty but with a stillness that diminishes as the season advances. This is the most knowing time to experience the Burren.
