COINCIDING with the clocks springing forward, Kerry County Council is encouraging people of all ages to make the most of the increase in daylight hours and to start to clock up ‘Kingdom Kilometres’ on foot or by cycling along the county’s two new Greenways — the Tralee-Fenit and Listowel-Abbeyfeale routes.
Representatives of the tourism industry, local public representatives, travel writers and influencers gathered in Kerry on Monday to experience the exciting new tourist attractions and welcome the arrival of the longer daylight hours as the clocks change over to summertime.
Sarah Hanrahan, a social media influencer who posts about Irish travel inspiration and has more than 100,000 Instagram followers, described the experience: “Ireland has some of the most amazing outdoor spaces; for a lot of my followers and other people, connecting with green spaces has become much more important to their overall sense of wellbeing as well as their health and fitness.

“It’s been really gorgeous to experience the Tralee to Fenit, and Listowel to Limerick Kingdom of Kerry Greenways; a fantastic trip sampling the warm hospitality of Kerry and a great reminder of the active holiday options that are right on our doorstep.”
The Mayor of Tralee, Cllr Mikey Sheehy and the Mayor of Listowel, Cllr Aoife Thornton, said that the greenways offer an exceptional recreational amenity for everyone to enjoy: “The greenways are situated in some of Kerry’s most scenic landscapes and offer spectacular and safe off-road facilities for people of all ages to enjoy as the landscape comes into bloom. They also offer warm hospitality at the trail head towns of each route.”
