This
is one of our most frequented tours and for very good reason.
The Ring of Kerry has it all along its 110 mile length.
The walk takes you from the lush vegetation of Killarney
National Park, past the majestic peaks of the MacGillacuddy
Reeks, along coastal paths overlooking Dingle Bay to the
golden sands of Waterville and Derrynane. This part of
Ireland is rich in history, myth and legend, and also has
an abundance of local flora and fauna – including
the Irish Red Deer.
The walk is often along the renowned Kerry Way, allowing us
to carry out a complete circuit of the Iveragh Peninsula. Our
route crosses hills, valleys and some rocky mountain passes.
However we never venture to the heights of the Reeks where
serious rock and mountain climbing can be had. Instead we walk
along a network of forested and moss-lined paths, open bog,
moorland, past island-studded mountain lakes and waterfalls
and along coastal paths. Every day we experience different
aspects of the remarkable and varied countryside before returning
to the warmth of our hostelry in the evening. |
