A Herb walk is the best way of becoming familiar with local wild medicinal plants. Under the expert guidance of an experienced Herbalist, we will take a gentle walk through the magic lands of the Burren, stopping along the way to meet the wild herbs. We will cover old traditional cures and folklore as well as modern medicinal uses.Please bring along a camera if you would like a photographic record and also some writing material to take notes. Children are welcome to come along for free. Group rates available. Please enquire on 087 7531023 (Lisa, Guide.)
