The park’s heart lies in its three famous lakes — Lough Leane, Muckross Lake, and Upper Lake. Each reflects the sky like a mirror, creating postcard-perfect views.

Meet the park’s wild residents — red deer, otters, and rare birds. Killarney is one of the last places in Ireland where red deer still roam free.
