Description

Charming and romantic. This is definitely the best way to describe the Killarney lakes as well as all the region around the ring of Kerry.

Indeed, these words are probably not the best adapted to describe a biking road. Don't worry, curves ar here, despite surfacing is too much...Irish !!
