Muckross & Dinis

This is a 13 mile walk in the killarney national park along the shores of Muckross Lake & the meeting of the waters, where the 3 lakes meet, which can be walked or cycled. It is flat terrain so not difficult. We can arrange bicycle hire for you & detailed maps of the area for you to take with you.

Ross Castle

One can take a horsedrawn carriage, known as a 'jaunting car' from town to the castle. Boat trips around the lakes of Killarney also depart from here.
