'Historic day for Iveragh Peninsula' as South Kerry Greenway gets green light

Part of the route for the proposed South Kerry Greenway.

The way has been paved for the construction of the South Kerry Greenway following the Supreme Court's refusal to allow leave for two appeals. The go-ahead comes a decade after the project was first mooted. 

The greenway will run along the abandoned rail line skirting the Ring of Kerry, starting at Glenbeigh and finishing outside Caherciveen, for about 30km over spectacular scenery and old bridges overlooking Dingle Bay.
