Outdoor adventures in County Kerry

County Kerry, also known as 'the Kingdom', is renowned for its magnificent natural beauty and outdoor adventures that reveal the essence of the Wild Atlantic Way. The direct journey from Cork city takes about an hour and a half. Killarney, a picturesque town on the edge of Killarney National Park, is the perfect base for those seeking a mix of breathtaking scenery and evocative traces of Ireland's cultural and historical heritage. The walks through its ancient forests are magnificent, as are the views of the lakes. For a little background investigation, a visit to the 15th-century Ross Castle is a must.

The 19th-century Muckross House and Gardens estate is perfect if you love gardens, but also love crafts, good food and agricultural experiences, thanks to the farm it houses. For a scenic ride, it's best to take a bike and ride the Gap of Dunloe - a mountain pass in a narrow glacial valley - that opens up one of Ireland's most enchanting landscapes.
