Gleensk Viaduct- Ring of Kerry

The start of the famous 'Ring of Kerry' for us, despite 'doubtful weather' brings us to this very interesting structure. Made even more so when you read the description below:

"The Gleensk Viaduct is a fine example of railway engineering and was part of the Great Southern and Western Railway Line which ran from Valentia Island Harbour to Farranfore Junction for nearly one hundred years. This now disused and dismantled railway line was one of the most spectacular train journeys in the world, the western most in Europe and a tourist attraction that Ireland can only dream of now." - www.activeme.ie/guides
