Killarney is one of Ireland's top tourist destinations and is well known for its excellent shops, restaurants and cosmopolitan appeal. During summer months the lively on-street musical entertainment complements the meandering of tourists and locals alike. On bright evenings one can browse in a bookstore, admire art, or savour the delights of homemade ice cream or a finely prepared lobster.
Ireland's first National Park lies to the south and west of Killarney town at the foot of Ireland's highest mountain range, The MacGillycuddy's Reeks. Killarney National Park contains the most extensive areas of natural woodland remaining in Ireland. The park today covers an area of over 26,000 acres with numerous walking trails. The park also boasts the three world famous Lakes of Killarney. A traditional feature of Killarney is its jaunting cars which are available for hire in the town and at other locations adjoining the National Park. During your stay in Killarney you can enjoy the many walking trails in the National Park and don't forget your camera as you might get the opportunity to photograph some rare red deer.
