Kerry’s Reeks District ranks 3rd on list of top places in world to see
Our little Emerald Island is full of stunning landscapes.
So we are delighted to hear that Kerry's Reeks District has been ranked so highly.
In a list published by The Rough Guides travel website, we come in at a very respectable third place.
The website put together 'Six Regions on our Radar' and the MacGillycuddy's Reeks came after Argentina's Iberá Wetlands and China's Yúnnán province.
The Kerry landmark was described by The Rough Guides as "spectacular" and "postcard scenery."
"Drive, walk, hike, climb, bike, kayak or sail around the mountains and lakes of this rugged landscape encircled by the Ring of Kerry," it added.
Canada’s Yukon Territory came in at fourth place, and was described as "true wilderness, where the wildlife outnumbers humans."
Following behind it was Wadi Rum, Jordon.
If you're a Star Wars fan, you may recognise this location from the third Star Wars sequel trilogy (Episode IX) – it was filmed here and we can totally understand why.
In sixth and final position was Alabama in the USA, in July of this year they will be celebrating 50 years since the moon landing.
And you better believe the celebrations will be so VERY extra, as the city has been nicknamed the “Rocket City”.
We are thrilled to see Kerry being featured amongst such stunning locations.
Although we aren't completely surprised – it's breathtaking.
So now you have the perfect excuse to plan a gals trip to Kerry.
