Ross Castle
Wild Atlantic Way, IrelandAbout this experience
Ross Castle perches in an inlet of Lough Leane. It is likely that the Irish chieftain O’Donoghue Mór built it in the fifteenth century.
Legend has it that O’Donoghue still slumbers under the waters of the lake. Every seven years, on the first morning of May, he rises on his magnificent white horse.
If you manage to catch a glimpse of him you will enjoy good fortune for the rest of your life.
