Ring of Kerry Ireland

Have you ever been to Ireland? The Ring of Kerry is probably one of the areas that you visited if you have been there. I have not had the opportunity to go there but my wife and daughter took a 14 day trip to Ireland. They say it is gorgeous. However, they heard about the Ring of Kerry but it was not on their itinerary.

Here is what is said about this beautiful place.....


The Ring of Kerry is probably Ireland’s most popular scenic drive. This web site is mostly about walking, so there are many great walks that are talked about off the Ring of Kerry, often along the Atlantic coast.

It is possible to use any of the towns along the Ring as starting point as it is a circular route. From Killarney take the N70 to Killorglin along the side of the River Laune. Killorglin is known worldwide for its annual horse and cattle fair, the “puck Fair”. Continue on to the picturesque village of Glenbeigh a popular holiday destination for families due to the Blue Flag beach, which is located just beyond the village at Rossbeigh.

The cliff section of the road between Glenbeigh and Cahersiveen offers spectacular costal views. Visit the Barracks Heritage Centre, which is superbly located in the former Royal Irish Constabulary barracks.

Well the narration about this beautiful area could go on and on. The point is if you want to know about Ring of Kerry or other great walks in Ireland you need to check out this website.
