Spacious park on the edge of Killarney. Highly recommended is a visit to the nearby Ross Castle.

The gardens were part of the Killarney House estate, which was sold to the Irish state by Mr McShain in 1978. Since then the gardens have been part of Killarney National Park.
There are some beautifully landscaped flower beds in the extensive complex.
