Torc Waterfall in Killarney is a stunning 20-meter-high waterfall located near the town and within Killarney National Park. Legend has it that the name "Torc" comes from the Irish word for boar, with tales of curses and magical wild boars adding to its mystique. Visitors can choose between a short 5km walk or a longer 10km hike to reach the waterfall, with both routes offering beautiful views and a bit of a workout. For those looking to avoid the crowds and parking headaches, cycling to Torc Waterfall is a great option, allowing you to explore the area at your own pace.
