Itinerary

  1. Leave Kenmare and cross into County Cork through the incredible Caha Pass — a narrow mountain route with hand-carved tunnels and jaw-dropping views of valleys and cliffs. A breathtaking start to your Beara adventure.

    30 min

  2. Nestled at the edge of Bantry Bay, Glengarriff is a lovely forested village. Enjoy a short stroll, browse the shops, or admire views across to Garnish Island and its exotic gardens.

    45 min

  3. Climb into the Caha Mountains once again via the famous Healy Pass. With its hairpin bends and vast views stretching across the Beara landscape, this is one of Ireland’s most scenic drives.

    45 min

  4. Continue along the rugged coastline to the Allihies Viewpoint. This is remote Ireland at its best — windswept cliffs, endless ocean, and the distant view of Dursey Island. A perfect stop for photos.

    45 min

  5. Pause at the tranquil Glenbeg Lough, a still and reflective lake surrounded by the dramatic Beara hills — a quiet, beautiful moment in the day.

    30 min

  6. Journey into a hidden valley to visit the stunning Gleninchaquin Park, known for its dramatic waterfall, walking trails, and breathtaking scenery. A true gem that feels like stepping into another world.

About Killarney

Killarney is a small County Kerry town beside a national park of lakes, mountains and old woodland, and the usual start of the Ring of Kerry.

Killarney National Park, on the town's doorstep, takes in three lakes and ancient oak and yew woods, with the MacGillycuddy's Reeks rising to the west, where Carrauntoohil is the highest mountain in Ireland. Muckross House is a Victorian mansion with gardens on a lake shore, Muckross Abbey is a ruined friary, Ross Castle stands on the water, and Torc Waterfall drops through the woods. The park shelters Ireland's only native herd of red deer.
