About Ring of Kerry - County Kerry, Ireland

The Ring of Kerry is an iconic circular route in southwestern Ireland that takes you through some of the country's most dramatic and diverse landscapes. The route follows the Atlantic Ocean's wild coastline, offering views of steep cliffs, hidden beaches, and serene coves, where the changing light constantly transforms the scenery. Along the way, you'll pass through charming towns like Kenmare, Sneem, and Waterville, known for colorful facades, local crafts, and a relaxed atmosphere. One of the highlights is Killarney National Park, where mirror-like lakes, waterfalls, and centuries-old oak forests set the stage for Ireland's oldest national park. Here, MacGillycuddy’s Reeks rise dramatically, with Carrauntoohil standing as the country's highest mountain. History is ever-present with ringforts, monastic ruins, and stone monuments that testify to thousands of years of settlement. The Ring of Kerry combines breathtaking nature, vibrant culture, and authentic Irish experiences, perfectly rounded off in local pubs with traditional music and warm Irish hospitality.
