Some roads aren’t about the destination…

They’re about the quiet, the light through the trees, and the feeling of being completely somewhere else.

Just you, the road, and a little piece of Ireland most people miss — with O’Rourke Tours guiding the way.

Medieval Origins & Construction
Early Settlement: A fortification likely existed on this site as far back as the 1300s, originally built by the O’Connor family.
Unique Design: The current sandstone tower dates to the mid-16th century. It is one of only three cylindrical tower houses in the Burren region.
The Name: Its name is derived from Dún na Gabhair, meaning “fort of the goats” or “fort of the rounded hills”.
