Killarney National Park Holiday Accommodation , Ireland

Killarney National Park is located beside the town of Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland. It was the first National Park established in Ireland, dedicated in 1932, and encompasses 25,425 acres of diverse landscapes and ecosystems. Composed of the Lakes of Killarney, Oak and Yew woodlands of international importance, and mountain peaks, this varied region has some of the best scenery in Ireland and is a popular tourist destination. There is a visitor and education centre at Muckross House that you can visit to learn about the conservation efforts that have taken place in the area. The Lakes of Killarney National Park are Lough Leane (the lower lake), Muckross Lake (the middle lake), and the Upper Lake. There are boat trips on the lower lakes and the lakes are ideal for fishing. There are many historic sites in the area as well, one of which is Ross Castle.

There are several rare species of animals and plants, including Ireland's only remaining native herd of Red Deer and the Killarney Fern, which grows in the splashzone of waterfalls and other damp places. The flora and fauna here are incredibly diverse and many of the rare species are actively conserved by the National Park status of the region. This makes it an excellent holiday destination for wildlife lovers, bird watchers and botanists, and also anyone interested in nature.
