Thingstodo information
Dún Aonghasa
Perched spectacularly on a cliff overlooking the Atlantic ocean, Dún Aonghasa is the largest of the prehistoric stone forts of the Aran Islands. The fort is about 900 metres from the visitor centre and is approached over rising ground. Please note that Dún Aonghasa is a vulnerable site. Visitors are, therefore, asked to co-operate to protect this monument by not interfering with it in any way. As much of the tour is outdoors, visitors are advised to wear weather protective clothing and shoes suitable for walking over uneven terrain.
