Bird’s-eye view of remote Clare routes on Google

If you’re the kind of traveller who has no interest in boldly going where no one’s gone before and Clare is on your list of destinations, then Google’s latest Street View offering is just the ticket.

Every step of a 12km trail along the Cliffs of Moher, linking Liscannor to Doolin, is presented in a collection of scenic photographs captured by an intrepid walker armed with the Google Trekker, a 42-pound backpack containing 15 lenses — the upshots of which are 360-degree panoramic views of some of Clare’s most famous landscapes.

There is a bird’s eye view of everything from the local flora and fauna to a colony of seabirds.
