Beach on Lough Leane, Killarney National Park

Highlight • Beach

This wild, sandy beach on Muckross Lake is a beautiful place to visit. You can look across the water to spot the ferry crossing and the islands which dot the meeting of the waters between this lake and Lough Leane to the north. It's exposed here and often windy, if you catch a nice day, it's a great place for a picnic.

Muckross House

Highlight • Historical Site

An impressive sight is the Muckross House with its garden, which is known far beyond the borders of Ireland. The impressive structure is part of Irish architectural history, but is also one of the most interesting sights in the country. The garden with its diverse plants is ideal for walks.
