is about Killarney for your family break . Killarney not
surprisingly given its amazing biodiversity, Killarney National Park was
designated as a Biosphere Reserve in 1981 by the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). It's now part of a world network
of natural areas which are focused on conservation, research, education and
training as major objectives. In fact, the former Kenmare Desmene, which is
part of the National Park, features Killarney House and Gardens and Knockreer
House which is the education centre of the park.
For most visitors, however, the primary must-see site in Killarney National Park is Muckross House and Gardens which are jointly managed by the Park Authorities and the Trustees of Muckross House. Built in 1839, the house is preserved as a late 19th century mansion and it includes all the authentic furnishings from that time for visitors to enjoy. The extensive gardens surrounding the house were mainly developed in the 1850's in preparation for a visit from Queen Victoria in 1861 and include a Victorian Walled Garden, a mid 19th century parterre*, and recently restored Edwardian Glasshouses.There are numerous guest house apartments’ hostels as well as low cost hotel where you can stay.
