Hope is being expressed that technology can play a part in helping sites like the Cliffs of Moher deal with “over tourism”.
It follows a conference at Dromoland Castle over the weekend, which heard of concerns over the sustainability of high visitor numbers to natural attractions such as the Cliffs.
A number of tourism experts joined in the discussion, which looked at issues including climate change and increased emphasis on protecting nature.
