Trail description

A climb above the lakes of Killarney on railway sleeper steps that protect the bog, starting near the Torc waterfall. The path winds up to a summit with a beautiful view over the lakes and the surrounding mountains. Boggy but well managed, in one of the loveliest corners of Kerry.
