What’s Where

Killarney and Nearby. Nineteenth-century visitors found the views of Killarney every bit as romantic and uplifting as the mountains of Switzerland; the unique combination of glacial landscape and abundant subtropical vegetation, studded by the bright blue waters of the lakes, creates an unforgettable vista—and it smells good, too, with peat-fire smoke mingling with fresh mountain air.

The Ring of Kerry. One of Europe’s great scenic drives, a highlight of the Wild Atlantic Way, the route runs around the edge of this rocky peninsula, passing from the subtropical splendor of Sneem, on the sheltered Kenmare River, past Waterville, where the twin-peaked Skellig rocks hover on the horizon, to the starker views of Dingle Bay to the north.

Corca Dhuibhne: The Dingle Peninsula. Dingle Town is a-hopping, between the live traditional music in its numerous bars and the fresh seafood on offer in its eateries; head west to Slea Head for stunning coastal scenery, with pristine sandy beaches, rocky islands, and Iron Age ruins.

North Kerry and Shannonside. Beyond the pretty and historic village of Adare with its charming thatched cottages is the great River Shannon. Limerick City bears the scars of history from the 1691 Siege of Limerick—a confrontation with the English.
