The Cliffs of Moher run for 14 kilometres along the Clare coast, rising to 214 metres at their highest point near O'Brien's Tower. A paved path links the visitor centre to viewpoints, and a longer coastal trail continues to Doolin and Hag's Head with far fewer people on it. Seabird colonies, including puffins in early summer, nest on the ledges.
