  • The Kerry Way Self Guided | Free Download
    The Kerry Way: Self-Guided How to plan your multi-day backpacking trip around Ireland’s scenic Ring of Kerry Many are familiar with the beautiful Ring of Kerry in County Kerry, Ireland, but far fewer are aware that the entire route can be walked instead of driven. Despite The Kerry Way’s status as one of the most popular of Ireland’s National Waymarked Trails, I had more difficulty finding advice to help me prepare for it than I did for hikes in Scotland and the United Kingdom. At approximately 135 miles, it’s also the longest of Ireland’s trails, and in retrospect I’ve noticed that many companies who offer self-guided itineraries actually cut off two whole sections of the route - in my opinion, some of the prettiest sections. In honor of completing my own trek with nothing but online articles and digital apps to guide the way, I thought I’d pay it forward by creating my own budget-minded backpacker’s guide (for the WHOLE route) so that others might benefit from what I learned. If you prefer to stay in B&Bs rather than camping or budget accommodations, I’ve outlined how you can swap out some of my choices for your own. Stats: English Name: The Kerry Way Irish Name: Slí Uíbh Ráthaigh Location: Iveragh Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland Official Length: 135 miles (217 km), but there are multiple route options Completion Time: 9 Days is the typical schedule High Point: 1,263ft (385m) at Windy Gap, between Glencar and Glenbeigh Route Style: Circular Loop Table of Contents: (Click to Jump To) Preparedness: Things to Consider Weather Gear Amenities Currency Language Wildlife Cell Service Physical Fitness Popularity Waymarking To Camp or Not to Camp? Emergencies Resources Getting There // Getting Around Route // Accommodations Preparedness: Things to Consider WEATHER According to DiscoveringIreland, “the average number of wet days (days with more than 1mm of rain) ranges from about 150 days a year along the east and south-east coasts, to about 225 days a year in parts of the west.” Our route along the Iveragh Peninsula follows the southwest coast of Ireland.

It is a magical place to discover on foot, from rugged cliffs to golden beaches, small villages, green pastures, peat bogs and always picturesque mountain ranges in sight. Hiking the Kerry Way allows you to see the “real” Ireland, away from crowds and only the sounds of nature to accompany you. This area was first settled around 300 BC by the people of Ciar – an early Celtic Tribe, and your holiday will immerse you in almost 10,000 years of dramatic history. Come and discover this region of Kerry known as the Iveragh Peninsula or more famously “The Ring of Kerry” & you will wonder why it has taken you so long to discover such an idyllic part of the world. This holiday begins & ends in Killarney and takes you to the eastern highlights of this trail.

  • The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers
    THE LIST of CHURCH OF IRELAND PARISH REGISTERS A Colour-coded Resource Accounting For What Survives; Where It Is; & With Additional Information of Copies, Transcripts and Online Indexes SEPTEMBER 2021 The List of Parish Registers The List of Church of Ireland Parish Registers was originally compiled in-house for the Public Record Office of Ireland (PROI), now the National Archives of Ireland (NAI), by Miss Margaret Griffith (1911-2001) Deputy Keeper of the PROI during the 1950s. Griffith’s original list (which was titled the Table of Parochial Records and Copies) was based on inventories returned by the parochial officers about the year 1875/6, and thereafter corrected in the light of subsequent events - most particularly the tragic destruction of the PROI in 1922 when over 500 collections were destroyed. A table showing the position before 1922 had been published in July 1891 as an appendix to the 23rd Report of the Deputy Keeper of the Public Records Office of Ireland. In the light of the 1922 fire, the list changed dramatically – the large numbers of collections underlined indicated that they had been destroyed by fire in 1922. The List has been updated regularly since 1984, when PROI agreed that the RCB Library should be the place of deposit for Church of Ireland registers. Under the tenure of Dr Raymond Refaussé, the Church’s first professional archivist, the work of gathering in registers and other local records from local custody was carried out in earnest and today the RCB Library’s parish collections number 1,114. The Library is also responsible for the care of registers that remain in local custody, although until they are transferred it is difficult to ascertain exactly what dates are covered.

However, by subsequently removing the second emergency ambulance from Killarney the Government is putting lives at risk in all of South Kerry.

  • Lovely South West – Die Drei Finger Irlands: I Dingle
    Achtung! Stand: Frühjahr 2010: Dies ist eine Textsammlung alter wie neuer Berichte. 1 Einige davon sind uralt – konnten aber aus Zeit-und Arbeitsgründen noch nicht bearbeitet /aktualisiert werden. Teilweise sind solche Stellen markiert, teilweise aber auch nicht. Trotzdem gibt es keine „plausiblere“ Zusammenstellng von Hintergrundinformationen zum Südwesten – in Deutsch. Und genau deshalb schicken wir sie Ihnen und Dir heute auch zu (Korrekturen? Mitarbeit? Anregungen? Gerne..) Inhaltsübersicht: Lovely South West – die drei Finger Irlands: I Dingle Halbinsel darin extra: A Das verlorene Erbe der Blaskets B Wer erbt die Blaskets? (42.219 Zeichen) C Auswahl aus: Wann kommt Fungi? Dreimal Dingle Alles Käse… II Ring of Kerry darin enthalten : Valentia Island /// darin wiederum enthalten: Valentia von A-Z III Beara-Halbinsel Lovely South West – Die drei Finger Irlands I Der erste Finger – die Dingle Halbinsel Die Länder dieser Erde haben auf der Landkarte höchst unterschiedliche Umrisse, die allesamt jede Menge Raum zu den unterschiedlichsten Interpretationen geben. Italien wird immer als Stiefel bezeichnet, Chile ist ein langer schmaler Strich, dessen Breite in keinem Verhältnis zu seiner Länge zu stehen scheint. Großbritannien kann man mit sehr viel Phantasie für ein an den Hinterbeinen aufgehängtes Schwein halten. Wales ist der Kopf, Schottland bildet die Hinterschinken. Mexiko schaut wie ein Füllhorn aus. Frankreich ist ein fünfzackiger Stern. Aber Portugal? Oder Polen? Und wer weiß, wie Ungarn eigentlich geformt ist? Zu Irland fällt es ähnlich schwer, einen Vergleich zu bilden. Die Wolfe Tones haben es in einem Lied einmal als Teddybär bezeichnet, mit dem Kopf in Belfast und den Füßen in Cork. Komischer Bär. Der Teddy, den ich als Kind hatte, sah anders aus.
