    Over Moll's Gap, down into the Black Valley, up over the Gap of Dunloe and back past Kate Kearney's Cottage. Great route. Only issue is it could be icy up the Gap this weekend.

    Could do the ring.
    Then tell her the reason you were more than 4 hours was a puncture. Easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission :D

    @Glennboy. The route linked by Lescol above is the single best 3-4 hour ride from Killarney IMHO. Caragh lake in particular is a hidden gem. Lots of local cyclists go there but very few other folk know about it. Once in Glencar you could head straight for Molls Gap via Ballaghbeama or via the Gap of Dunloe and black valley.
    2 coffee stops close to Molls Gap - Strawberry Fields Pancake Cottage or Avoca at Molls Gap.
    The down hill to Killarney. Great spin.
