Famous Scenic
Tours of the South West At Victoria House Hotel The Ring of Kerry is usually done in an anti-clockwise direction, along the
banks of the River Laune to Killorglin, via Glenbeigh, Kells, Caherciveen and the southern shores of Dingle Bay. The
tour continues to Waterville and along the coast via Coomakista Pass and Derrynane and on to Sneem. From Sneem we travel up the mountain road to Molls Gap, then finally to Ladies View. In addition to stopping at all points of interest en route we also stop for an hour at
lunchtime. The Dingle Peninsula and Slea Head which stretches out into the Atlantic Ocean, is the most northerly of the mountainous promontories which form the indented coast of South West Ireland. It is particularly notable in its scenery of mountain and coast and is of interest on account of its antiquities. From Slea Head one can see the Blasket Islands, which are the last outposts of Europe and are known as the next parish to America. Many of the local community speak Gaelic as their first language.
