A Detailed Ring Of Kerry Map with Must See Attractions

If you want to go touring and exploring the Ring of Kerry in detail, you need a good quality map that will show all the side roads. A lot of the tourist maps show only the main roads which is sufficient if you are not planning on leaving the main Ring of Kerry road. Also don't make the mistake to rely on phone navigation or sat nav too much. They often loose connection particularly in more remote areas. And trust me... that is where you really need them!
I like the OSI Discovery Series Maps because they show all the important details. To cover the RoK you need the maps No 78, 83 and 84. These maps are usually available in local newsagents or shops. If you want to come prepared you can order them here. OSI Discovery Series Maps are also great if you are planning on hiking or cycling in Kerry.
