You NEED to Do This in Killarney - Ireland
Boating through Killarney National Park and Biking through the Gap of Dunloe. I didn't know Ireland was such an adventurous destination.
I was in Killarney to attend TBEX (Travel Blog Exchange) and one of the tours they put together, through Failte Ireland, was to boat across Lough Leane and cycle through the Gap of Dunloe, both close to Killarney.
We were pick up at the INEC (Ireland's National Event Center) and transported to Ross Castle on Lough Leane. We took boats, provided by Gap of Dunloe Traditional Boat Tours, across the lake to an island with ancient monastery ruins and then navigating through Muckross Lake and Upper Lake before being dropped off at Lord Brandon's Cottage.
From there we mounted our bikes, provided by Ireland Walk Hike Bike, to cycle up the Mountains of East Kerry for the 11 kilometer road through the Gap of Dunloe. The sights were incredible. It did rain on and off the whole day but it just added to the experience and made it more memorable.
We stopped at Heather Restaurant for a delicious meal and the best Irish Coffee I have ever had. Our last stop of the tour was Beaufort Bar, a pub that is as traditional as you can find with live music and dance performers to welcome all us bloggers to Ireland.
It was an amazing first day in Ireland for me and I highly suggest Killarney as a stop on your Ireland trip.

Killarney is most famous for its three lakes, and the town itself is quite attractive. Killarney is the nation's most popular destination after Dublin. People are drawn here primarily for the natural beauties around in the National Park, but the town itself has developed into a major tourist magnet.
There are quite a few shops packed into a small area. Those main streets outlined in blue add up to only about 1/2 a mile so it's quite easy to walk through the center up and down both sides of the street.
One of the most popular activities here is riding in the horse carriage with some commentary by your local driver.
Killarney does have nice wide sidewalks in the downtown area with trees and some benches, and the shops each seem to be unique. It's not like going to a big shopping mall. This place has a lot of character. The center of town, marked in the red circle is the crossroads of busy streets: High Street Main and New. Cars drive down the streets, so there's no pedestrian zone as such, but the sidewalks are nice and wide, it's easy to take a comfortable stroll.

Killarney National Park In Killarney Ireland
Goliath Mann from YT took me to Killarney Ireland. We also visited the Killarney National Park and took a horse drawn carriage tour. Killarney is famous for its lakes, waterfall and mountain views.
We saw the Torc Waterfall while passing through on the way out of Killarney.
In the park we saw some wild deer, which feel quite safe because I was told the Irish do not eat venison much at all.
There was a beautiful old run of a church which is said to be haunted.
The Killarney lakes are a series of interconnected inland fresh water lakes. They are quite a scene from the mountain tops.
We also saw Ross castle which I later got to tour. Sadly they did not allow cameras inside so this is about all you will see of it.
Inside the castle you can see the four level dwellings of the people who lived inside. From the bottom, moving up to the top you have the poor up to the richest of the people.
Thank you again Goliath Mann for another awesome day in Ireland.

First Impressions exploring Killarney Ireland
Having spent over a week in Dublin, Ireland it was time for me to escape the hustle and bustle of the city to visit more of rural Ireland. With this in mind, I headed over to Killarney by myself by train. While visiting the city I was impressed by the passion locals have for Gaelic football (green and gold was everywhere) and I spent the majority of my time exploring Killarney National Park en route to Ross Castle. Although I didn't have a lot of time to spend here I did have a very favorable first impression and would gladly return again in the future if given the opportunity.

First Impressions of Killarney, Ireland Travel Video Transcript:
Good morning everyone. It's bright and early here in Dublin and I'm about to board a train bound for Killarney - a city I've never visited before.
Audrey is off on a friends and family road trip so unfortunately you'll have to be putting up with me the whole time.
Anyways, let's get going.
It's nice, only one transfer today. The journey has been really pleasant so far. It's been really scenic and I should be in Killarney in about an hour.
After arriving at Cill Arine station minus my sweater, I dropped off my bags at the hotel and set off on foot to explore the downtown core.
I quickly found myself impressed by how passionate the city is about its Gaelic Football with Green and Gold displayed everywhere. With no shortage of restaurants and pubs at my disposal it wasn't long before I sat down for lunch.
For lunch I'm going with Fish and Chips and a pint of Guinness. It never gets old.
Well, that really hit the spot. Now it is time to go out and check out the town.
Well, well, it didn't take me long to escape the bustle of the downtown city core. And so far my first impressions of this place have been really positive. It's a nice change of pace from Dublin where you know it is a really big city and it is really hectic. So over here it is much much smaller and literally it took me 2 minutes to walk out into the woods here and now I'm down a path. Just what I want.
It appears I've made it to the entrance of Killarney National Park. But before I go there, there is a cathedral right in front of me that looks absolutely amazing, so I'm going to go check that out first. And then onward to the park.
An interesting fact is that Saint Mary's Cathedral served as a shelter and hospital for the sick and dying during the great famine before it was even fully completed in 1855.
It appears I have options galore in terms of where to go.
Well, Ross Castle it is. And after that gigantic lunch I've got a lot of calories to burn off.
Something you really appreciate in Ireland is when you have a gorgeous day like this. When it is sunny outside, when there is hardly a cloud in the sky. Because it does rain a lot here and so any excuse to put away your umbrella and get outside and go for a walk is definitely worth taking advantage of.
You know how sometimes in life you hit a fork in the road. Well, apparently sometimes you also hit a flood in the road. So this road is flooded here. I'm probably less than five hundred meters away from the castle. I can't see it right now but here is the dilemma. How do I get there?
That appears about as far as I can go unless of course I can magically find a pair of rain-boots or a canoe.
Open to the public Ross Castle built in the 15th Century is situated on the edge of Killarney's lower lake. Visiting its grounds is the perfect ending to a walk in Killarney National Park. In terms of nearby attractions it was definitely my favorite.
I often find when traveling you have these unexpected days. You have these days where you lose your sweater and you try to reach somewhere and it doesn't work the first time or the second time and maybe not even the third time. Luckily it did for me the third time. But anyway this is the kind of adventure that really make traveling interesting for me. I like that days are varied and that you never know what is going to happen.
So I'm going to finish off this adventure with a river-walk back to the hotel.
This is part of our Travel in Ireland series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Irish culture, Irish arts, Irish foods, Irish religion, Irish cuisine and Irish people.
