A few minutes drive from the town of Killarney in Ireland Ross Castle stands majestically on the shore of the Lakes of Killarney. The surrounding Killarney National Park is a peaceful woodland with numerous pathways for a relaxing walk. The visitor can board a cruiser beside the castle to take a guided tour of the lakes.
Ross Castle was first built in the late 15th century by the chieftans of the locality the O’Donoghues. During the Desmond Rebellion of the 1580s the castle fell in to the possession of the McCarthy Clan. They leased the castle and the lands to the ancestors of the Earls of Kenmare.
