Our top things to do in Kerry this Summer | Day 4 Itinerary

Climb a mountain in kerry!

Here are OUR TOP THINGS TO DO IN KERRY THIS SUMMER | DAY 4 ITINERARY

Killarney Valley is surrounded by beautiful mountains which range in their degree of difficulty. At the easier end of the spectrum stands Torc and Strickeen and the degree of difficulty increases from there.

Some mountains nearby:

1. Carrauntoohill

Carrauntoohill is Ireland’s highest mountain, it’s a hugely rewarding day out but it’s level of difficulty should not be underestimated. Our advice…. to truly enjoy the experience, hire the expertise of a local guide.

2. MacGillycuddy Reeks

The Macgillycuddy Reeks is Kerry’s most famous Mountain Range. Challenge yourself on the 21km full day hike and enjoy magnificent views. Just make sure you have a local guide to steer you along the way!

3. Mangerton

Mangerton Mountain just outside Killarney offers a tough but rewarding hike for those willing to take on the challenge! With spectacular views of Killarney, The MacGillycuddy Reeks, The Paps and The Devil’s Punchbowl, Mangerton should definitely be added to your list.

4. The Paps

The Paps walking route in Killarney is a hidden gem steeped in Irish mythology. A moderate hike, the route begins in Derrynafinna and follows in the footsteps of the legendary Fianna. Enjoy spectacular views in every direction upon reaching the summit.

We had an early start from Dingle this morning, in order to enjoy a peaceful Gap of Dunloe.
This is such a magical drive! So good, we drove up it twice!
Breakfast was enjoyed on the rocks just below our car there, before we headed for Killarney, via the Black Valley, Moll's Gap, diniscottagetearooms and Killarney National Park.
Huge thanks to Tommy Griffin, Kerry footballing legend, for the accommodation at his dog friendly muiris_dans Bar in Dingle last night!
Iggy has just surprised me with her delayed 50th birthday present to me! So tonight, we're staying at the *Dog Friendly* Dromhall Hotel!

We just drove through the Gap of Dunloe (magical!!), the Black Valley, Moll's Gap and we are currently at the Dog Friendly, Dinis Cafe, in Muckross.
This is a beautiful stop off for walkers/cyclists, plus there's a water station and treats for our canine companions too!
* Another lucky find! *

A late 50th present from herself to me.
We left Dingle this morning and covered a lot of ground on our way to Killarney, so we'll be resting up tonight in style!
Sheep's Head is our destination for tomorrow evening, with as much as possible packed in between!

Winter Lake Morning

Working back in Killarney National Park is like hanging out with an old friend, except now they've got new stories to tell.

I'm really enjoying having another look at locations that I didn't quite get to work in for my first book , for this next one.. KINGDOM ..( definitely coming this autumn ! )

It was apparently very easy to overlook some amazing locations and to rule out others for being difficult to get to. Now I have the time and a bit more confidence to take them on and see them in them in the first place .

Hope everyone is doing okay and staying safe and well. If you're the new owner of a print, book or calendar this year .. do let me know and I hope it was a welcome gift !!

Derrycunnihy Church

Is located on the infamous Ring of Kerry; found in Moll’s Gap you can reach Derrycunnihy by following the scenic main road (N21) towards Muckross for approx. 12km; after crossing Galway’s bridge you will reach the Church on a sharp bend where there is parking available.

Another hidden gem to be found in Killarney, the falls are almost an imminent sight only 1km from your departure. You can hear as they echo a peaceful air in nature’s playground. Continuing the route another .5km will bring you to the cascade – you will want your camera to capture this moment!

If you wish to lengthen this walk ever so slightly, Lord Brandon’s Cottage is only 2.5km from the cascades. The cottage resides at the opposite side in the Gap of Dunloe.

The Upper Lake.
I was up bright and early this morning, and myself and goranzphotography headed back up to the Upper Lake and I took another crack at it. There was no clouds, which left everything looking a bit boring once the sun came up, but I think this kind of minimalist version just before sunrise kind of works.

Does anybody else feel the guilt of not getting out when the weather is good?

Sunshine gives you an extra buzz of energy but for me, working full time and doing an online course, I feel like I don't have enough hours in the day.

So here is a throwback to me enjoying blue swimming togs, blue skies and blue waters. 💙
