Hopes ‘world class’ Lough Leane trail will attract overseas visitors

A new walking trail, which will pass through some of Killarney’s most famous scenic attractions has been given the green light.

The 28km Lough Leane Trail will begin and end in Killarney town, circling two of the area’s three renowned lakes, Lough Leane and Muckross Lake.

Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht Minister Jimmy Deenihan confirmed that funding had been secured from Fáilte Ireland for the detailed design and planning of the trail.
