Coolclogher House - The Gap of Dunloe

The Gap of Dunloe

The Gap of Dunloe, is a magnificent glaciated valley comprised of high cliffs and isolated lakes. Formed over 20,000 years ago when great glaciers carved a path through Ireland's highest mountain range, the MacGillicudy's Reeks. Towered over by Tomies and Purple Mountain behind which lie the Lakes of Killarney.

The Gap of Dunloe today with its cliffs and waterfalls, is one of Co. Kerry's most beautiful valleys. This natural beauty is one of Co. Kerry's prime tourist attractions, which can be viewed via jaunting cars from Killarney, pony trekking or simply on shank's mare (On Foot!).
