KILLARNEY MAHONYS POINT

After the rough-and-tumble challenge of the traditional Irish links courses, the tranquil beauty and somewhat gentler pace of Killarney’s three classic parkland courses offers a welcome respite. Mahony’s Point (Par 72, 6,781 yards), Killeen (Par 72, 7,123 yards), venue of the 1991/1992 Irish Open Championship and host of the 1996 Curtis Cup and the exciting new addition, Lackabane (Par 72, 7,095 yards) are nestled amidst the serene splendour of the famous Lakes of Killarney in the shadow of the majestic MacGillycuddys Reeks. The inspiring setting of incomparable beauty has moved many an overseas golfer to extol it as “the most enchanting place on Earth”. The richly wooded grounds for the courses were originally made available by Lord Castlerosse, an avid golfer, whose passion for horticulture manifests itself in the colourful and varied shrubbery throughout the courses. The three superb courses in the midst of stunning scenery make Killarney a place of pilgrimage for the discerning golfer.
