Ireland's highest mountains are found in the southwestern peninsulas of Cork and Kerry. Pictured is Carrantoohil, highest of the Irish Alps. Photo й Home At First.
IRELAND'S HIGHEST MOUNTAINS

Southern Ireland surprises. You can be walking (or driving!) in alpine heights at noon and eating fresh mussels under palm trees by the water's edge at suppertime. Drive from Ireland's second largest city to tiny villages that speak only Gaelic in under 90 minutes. And the colors! The only brighter colors than the blue of the sky and sea, and the green of the grass are those in the Technicolor rainbow of houses and shops in the towns and villages.
