1. This is a challenging road route, mainly on N and R roads, with a 10km climb from Kenmare to Molls Gap, then a mostly downhill run back to Killarney down through Ladies View etc.
The route initially heads along Park Road, R876, to the N22 roundabout. Turn right onto the the N22, Cork Road, and follow this all the way to Coomacullen. At this point turn right, off the N22 and onto the R569, heading for Kenmare. Follow the R569 all the way to Kenmare.
In Kenmare, pick up the N71 and turn right, heading towards Moll's Gap. You now have the 10Km climb. Continue to follow the N71 as it turns towards Derrylea and follow this all the way back to Killarney. |
