The Muckross Lake Loop

Over the weekend, we decided to do a staycation in Ireland. We booked a last minute break to Killarney. I love Killarney with all the activities it offers – kayaking, swimming, mountain climbing, hiking, cycling and walking to name a few. On Sunday, we took the Muckross Lake loop.
