Torc Waterfall
Eas Toirc
A roughly 20-meter waterfall hidden in a mossy forest, just minutes on foot from the car park. Steps lead further up to a viewpoint above.
Torc Waterfall lies at the foot of Torc Mountain. It drops about 20 meters through forest covered in moss and ferns, and the scene feels like a fairy tale. From the car park beside the N71 road, it is about a 5-minute walk to the waterfall. Follow the steps on the right to join the Kerry Way trail, which climbs Torc Mountain for views over three lakes. A round trip takes about 2 to 3 hours. Admission to the waterfall is free. In summer the car park fills up quickly, so it is best to cycle or arrive early in the morning.
