Advantages: Beautiful, unspoilt countryside. Captivating. Disadvantages: You won't want to come home!!!
...can hire your own pony and ride up into the gap. The Gap of Dunlow was one of my favourite places that I visited in Killarney. Partly because of its astounding beauty, but also for the sense of isolation from the world. It really is one of Killarney best unspoilt wonders of nature.
For those of you who like to sit back and enjoy the view instead of driving or for those of you who enjoy participating in touring as a large group there are regular coaches trips round the complete route of the 'Ring of Kerry'. For the more adventurous (and brave) you can hike a designated route around the Ring.
There are plenty of other activities to participate in when visiting Killarney including:

...Niddry Castle GolfClub is a 9 hole course at Castle Road, Winchburgh, West Lothian, which is approximately 10 miles from the centre of Edinburgh and 45 miles from Glasgow. It is a parkland course playing around Niddry Castle with an 18 Hole length of 5518yds (Par 70)(4612yds Par 68 Ladies). It is fairly tight in places with water coming into play on 5 of the 9 holes. Another 9 holes are currently being built with a completion date of Spring 2003.
Niddry Castle itself dates from 1490 and it is known that Mary Queen of Scots sought refuge there in 1568. It is not an attractive building but it has recently been restored as a private residence and is not open to the public.
The golf course dates from around the time of the Second World War but lay dormant until the present club were formed in 1983.
