Ring of Kerry
Looking for a driving route to experience the old Ireland? You definitely don't want to miss the Ring of Kerry in County Kerry, Ireland. The route left from Killarney and traveled along the N71 to Kenmare, the N70 across the Iveragh Peninsula to Killorglin, and the N72 back to Killarney.
Every moment spent traveling along the Ring of Kerry is rewarded thanks to the ideal blend of ocean, islands, imposing mountains, shimmering lakes, and magical forests! The road distance is 179 kilometers and it is recommended that visitors plan a road trip for 2 or 3 days to have the best experience. Don’t just drive the route, there are lots of things to discover along the Ring of Kerry.
Make a pit break along this breathtaking road to see the Skellig Michael UNESCO World Heritage Site, and don't miss another fantastic stop at Moll's Gap for a surreal panoramic view of the Park. Below, the lakes of Killarney National Park glisten. Furthermore, visitors may consider hiking Carrauntoohil, Ireland's highest mountain as it is not far from the Ring of Kerry route. Exploring the scenic Loe River, curving pathways, glacier-carved rocks at The Gap of Dunloe, and walking to the "Wishing Bridge" stone to pray for luck. Derrynane House & Park, Cahersiveen, Cahergal Stone Fort and Kenmare make up to the list of top attractions in the Road of Kerry. You will absolutely love being there if you enjoy photography and filming and have a drone!
