Step back in time and experience the charm of Killarney National Park the traditional way—with a jaunting car ride led by a local jarvey and his trusty horse. These iconic horse-drawn carriages offer a gentle and leisurely journey through one of Ireland’s most beautiful and historic landscapes. As you travel through shaded woodland trails, past glassy lakes and under ancient canopies, your jarvey shares stories, legends, and local insights that make the scenery come alive.
This easy-paced excursion is perfect for all ages and fitness levels, allowing you to take in the park’s sights without having to worry about hiking or long walks. Along the route, you’ll pass iconic landmarks such as Ross Castle, the Lakes of Killarney, and the sweeping views of the McGillycuddy Reeks. The clip-clop of hooves on the path adds a peaceful rhythm to the experience, offering a break from the modern world and a return to simpler times.
Whether it’s your first time in Killarney or a cherished return, there’s something magical about seeing it from a jaunting car. It’s more than just a mode of transport—it’s a cultural tradition, a connection to Ireland’s rural heritage, and a beautifully relaxed way to explore one of the country’s most treasured national parks.
