Here is another one of my pictures from my trip to Ireland last week. This is a shot of the Slieve League Cliffs in county Ulster. It is a region of Ireland located in the very north-west corner of the island. Apparently on the day I was there and took this picture someone unfortunately went missing on the cliffs, suspected that he fell off or got pushed off.
Wow, sounds great! Yeah when I walked up last week there still weren't any railings haha and near the top there's a little car park where the busses drop people off (I didn't take the bus I walked up) and there's a few merchants up there selling clothes and ice cream and stuff.
Sounds like it's only changed a little. Not sure the roads or the car park could have handled a full-size coach/tourbus back then, and I don't recall any vendors, but I doubt it will ever be fully commercialized, and certainly not while Brexit makes it a pain to get over from NI. It's just too remote, and "good enough" cliffs are available elsewhere.
I was backpacking though the British Isles between college/university and law school, stayed at a little hostel nestled in the valley, and hiked up through the sheep shit to then walk down into the main viewing area. It was probably only a couple of hundred yards where I was doing anything actually dangerous, but while very fun, it was also rather dumb.
