RouteXpert Review
This route from Clifden to Ennistymon runs through Burren and along the spectacular coast of Ireland. Beautiful winding roads through a rolling landscape alternating between beautiful green meadows and rough rocks. Note some roads are quite narrow, sometimes unpaved or badly damaged. Along the way there are several nice places to stop and take pictures, I could make all route points green. So take enough time to make this ride. At RP13 you can choose to turn right to the peninsulas Lettermore, Tiermee and Teach Mor.
Highlights are;
Galway (RP18 and 19) where there are also several pubs and restaurants for something to eat and drink. Blackhead (RP30), see also photo 2 and of course the Cliffs of Moher (RP34).
At RP36 you can turn right to the beach of Lahinch, where there are also a number of restaurants and pubs. To the left it goes to Ennistymon (our hotel).
This route gets 5 stars from me!

About this region
Munster (Irish: an Mhumhain [ə ˈwuːnʲ] or Cúige Mumhan [ˌkuːɟə ˈmˠuːnˠ]) is one of the provinces of Ireland, in the south of Ireland. In early Ireland, the Kingdom of Munster was one of the kingdoms of Gaelic Ireland ruled by a "king of over-kings" (Irish: rí ruirech). Following the Norman invasion of Ireland, the ancient kingdoms were shired into counties for administrative and judicial purposes. In later centuries, local government legislation has seen further sub-division of the historic counties.
Munster has no official function for local government purposes. For the purposes of the ISO, the province is listed as one of the provincial sub-divisions of the State (ISO 3166-2:IE) and coded as "IE-M". Geographically, Munster covers a total area of 24,675 km2 (9,527 sq mi) and has a population of 1,280,020, with the most populated city being Cork. Other significant urban centres in the province include Limerick and Waterford.

IRL6; Ring of Beare, Glenngariff Woods Nature Reserve and one of the most beautiful panoramas in Ireland: "Ladies View".
IRL7; Killarney National Park with Molls Gap, Ladies View, the Healy Pass and Priest's Leap (very narrow winding route with partly very bad road surface) and Mizen Head.

The routes are mainly country roads, often with beautiful curves, but sometimes very narrow or of poor quality. Driving experience is required, partly because of driving on the left side of the road.
You drive through nature parks and pass such as the Healy Pass, Conner Pass, Priest's Leap and Molls Gap. Two beautiful routes are the famous Ring of Kerry (IRL5) and Ring of Beare (IRL6). These are long journeys with many beautiful things along the way, so staying overnight while on the road is highly recommended. It can also be very busy on these routes in the weekends.
The other two routes in this collection is The Wild Atlantic Way from North-South and from South to North. This route is a sensational journey past towering cliffs and lively villages and towns, past hidden beaches and beautiful bays. This route follows the West Coast and you do multiple places from the other routes.
