Friday April 28, overcast, cool but a bit warmer than yesterday

Muckross claims to be the center, of importance, of Kerry. Home to a deserted Abbey and another castle..  We are now on the officially sanctioned ring of Kerry Way.

Muckross Abby. 500 plus years old, Franciscan, stark of course. Cemetery still in use.  Many Kelleher’s buried here.

Muckross house and gardens. Built by the same family that did Filloli gardens, there is a mural of Muckross in the lobby at Filloli. The grounds here are even larger. As this is much older the trees are even more impressive​.

The trees and the quality of the marked paths are an outstanding feature of the National trust area. Very well done.

View from Dinas Cottage​ tearoom below. 

Path back along the loop. 

A fine large horse. Unfortunately we had no carrots or apples to share. 

Dinner at Jarveys, not nearly as good as the pubs in Killarney.
