Caherconnell Fort and Sheepdog Demonstrations

A world of adventure awaits at Caherconnell, situated in a stunning valley in the very heart of the Burren, the Caherconnell Experience appeals to young and old and delivers a totally memorable and joyful day out.

You will be charmed by our captivating border collies, they are total show ladies as they demonstrate their herding skills. Their relationship with the shepherd is rooted in trust and their agility and ability is a joy to watch. You will be charmed and awed by the fabulous daily demonstrations and there is a chance to meet the doggy VIPs afterwards for cuddles,  selfies and pawprints

You will be amazed by our legendary stone Fort which is still being excavated every summer yielding new treasures all the time.  The fascinating story of how our ancient ancestors lived, worked, dressed and entertained themselves is brought to life.

You will learn how ancient farming practices evolved in the Burren and how they continue today by taking part in a fascinating farm tour. This unique landscape appears wholly unsuitable for farming so how generations have managed to successfully harness this terrain is an incredible feat and makes for a great story.
