Discover the expanse of rugged mountainous country in Killarney National Park. Explore the magnificent McGillycuddy's Reeks, the highest mountain range in Ireland which rises to a height of over 1000 metres.

At the foot of these mountains are the world famous lakes of Killarney, where the mountains sweep down to the shores. Visit the focal point of the National Park, Muckross House, a late 19th-century mansion with immaculately kept gardens.

Take a stroll around this beautiful place, admire the native oakwoods and yew together with an abundance of evergreen trees, shrubs and a profusion of bryophytes and lichens which thrive in the mild Killarney climate. If you're lucky, you might see some red deer roaming around the national park.
