A Car-free Day - Back on Bikes

We’re now in County Kerry, not far from the very touristy Ring of Kerry drive. That route goes along the next peninsula up from Beara, but we’re skipping the tour coach madness. At least on our other two peninsulas, no vehicles larger than a panel van or small agricultural machinery could fit on the roads.

Our 2-night lodging is in a former manor house on Muckross Lake, next to Killarney National Park. The hotel offers bikes to guests for free, and since it was actually a little sunny, we went for a ride around the lake and took in the surrounding sites of the Muckross House mansion, its grounds and an abbey.もっと詳しく
