Ross Castle
Ross Castle sits on the edge of Killarney’s lower lake and was built by O’Donoghue Mór in the 15th century. The Castle came into the hands of the Brownes who became the Earls of Kenmare and owned an extensive portion of the lands that are now part of Killarney National Park . Legend has it that O’Donoghue still exists in a deep slumber under the waters of Lough Leane. On the first morning of May every seven years he rises from the lake on his magnificent white horse and circles the lake. Anyone catching a glimpse of him is said to be assured of good fortune for the rest of their lives. The large rock at the entrance to the bay is known as O’Donoghue’s prison. Ross Castle was the last stronghold in Munster to hold out against Cromwell. It was eventually taken by General Ludlow in 1652.

Beautiful Ross Castle in the evening after some afternoon rain✨
Ross Castle is a 15th-century tower house and keep on the edge of Lough Leane, in Killarney National Park, County Kerry, Ireland.
It is the ancestral home of the Chiefs of the Clan O’Donoghue,later associated with the Brownes of Killarney.
Ross Castle was built in the late 15th century by local ruling clan the O’Donoghues Mór (Ross), though ownership changed hands during the Second Desmond Rebellion of the 1580s to the MacCarthy Mór.
There is a legend that O’Donoghue leapt or was sucked out of the window of the grand chamber at the top of the castle and disappeared into the waters of the lake along with his horse, his table and his library. It is said that O’Donoghue now lives in a great palace at the bottom of the lake where he keeps a close eye on everything that he sees.
I wish sunsets over Killarney always looked this good. 😍

It`s really starting to look and feel like autumn in these parts. No more sleeveless dresses for me unless there`s a turtleneck underneath 😂 I`m excited to be seeing a new area of Ireland the next few days in Killarney with thefullshillingblog 🍂🍂🍂 #tbexireland#lovekillarney#sgiew_autumn#quietinthewild#everydaymagic#adventurebeautifully#flashesofdelight

This feels soooo good! This is one of my favourite techniques from the world of structural integration (of which I have many). The eccentric contraction of the muscles along the side of the spine combined with the slow, deep pressure helps to not only free up restrictions but can also give you sensory feedback to move into parts of your spine that don`t move so freely. We all have parts of the spine that we have blind spots to, for many athletes it`s the lumbar spine (low back) to which they struggle with going into flexion because many are stuck in extension, this helps to free up the soft tissue around the low back so that the spine is able to explore those ranges of motion more easily. This technique is not only good for athletes though everyone can benefit from a spine that is able to move more freely.

Torc Waterfall
Another beautiful waterfall..this time in Ireland. Along the Ring of Kerry near Killarney is Torc waterfall.
According to legend the waterfall was created by a man who had been cursed by the Devil to spend each night transformed into a wild boar (or a wolf in other versions). After being found out he burst into flame, jumps into a lake which then creates the waterfall.
Totally makes sense. Slainte.
Up Torc with Val, grand day for it!! #fourseasonsoneday #hailstones #snow #sunshine #rain #hike #lovekillarney
Said I better leave the house some stage this week so spent my day wandering Killarney.
Hello colorful Killarney 💙Mal cheguei e já estou apaixonada com as cores dessa cidade. 🍀💚

I had the chance to spend a weekend in Killarney #Ireland🇮🇪 with Güerri ♥️ (last pic)
Before I arrived, I wasn’t really sure what to do in #Killarney. I knew it was a beautiful area, but I was surprised at what a FUN place it was😱
📸🍀┊ Visit a Pub or Two or Three, is a MUST, pubs are part of the fabric of Irish society, places to meet, drink and listen live music🍻. Ofc, the pouring of Guinness is a ritual, and I soon rediscovered my liking for Irish whiskey, I tried the best #Irishcoffee ever, and my new fave: Cider 🍎✨
🥃Here some wonderful pubs in the area:
🧚🏾 j.m_reidys my favourite pub in Killarney!

🍀Dick Mack’s: is a truly unique experience

Enjoy! And If you like to party just like Güerri and I, remember that the Irish like it loud!🥳🥳🍻

I heard the Ring of Kerry was gorgeous, but nothing can prepare you for the beautiful terrain you will come across. And within that beauty is a rich history.
We ventured off the Ring of Kerry to the Skelligs Ring and discovered old castle ruins and forts. This is the Lecanabuile Stone Fort, surrounded by sheep and the countryside.

Touring Muckross House in Killarney, Ireland with kidsareatrip and we3travel. The family who built the hunting lodge spent their fortune and six years preparing to host Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in hopes of securing a knighthood. Prince Albert died two months after their visit, and no knighthood was granted since the Queen went into deep mourning. But they sure enjoyed magnificent views of the lakes in Killarney.⠀
