South West Ireland - The outdoor activity zone!
The Cork Kerry region of South West Ireland is one of the most attractive holiday areas in Ireland. This area has a spectacular coastline of over 1000 km and has Ireland's highest mountain 'Carrauntoohil' at 1039 metres. This region also has Ireland's most southerly point and the most westerly point.
The Cork Kerry region is a region of scenic contrasts. The long indented coastline blends with spectacular mountains, and the many rivers and lakes combine with these mountains to give a landscape that offers much to the visitor.
This is a region where activity holidays play a large role in holiday plans, and County Cork has hosted the Irish Open Golf Championships on a number of occasions in recent years. Long distance walking is very popular in the region, as are the many cycle routes. In all about 1000 kms of developed walking routes are available and about the same distance of developed or planned cycling routes await the visitor.
With such a long coastline sea and shore fishing is widely available as is excellent game angling. Good coarse angling facilities are available in County Cork. |
