Killarney Riding Stables

Located about a mile west of Killarney Town and known locally as “O’Sullivan’s”, Killarney Riding Stables were established in 1968 by Donie O’Sullivan. Approved by the Irish Tourist Board, the Stables are home to some 70 horses. Being adjacent to the Killarney National Park, the casual customer can enjoy daily rides of one, two, or three hours.

Situated in South-West Ireland, County Kerry boasts some of the finest scenery in the world. It is an inspiration of the poet and artist with it’s high mountain ranges, it’s inlet studded coast, it’s woods, lakes, waterfalls, the ever-changing drama of it’s skies, and the eloquence of it’s people.

Apart from trekking locally through the Park, there are other package options available which include trekking through parts of the Ring of Kerry with overnight stays and food included and luggage moved from place to place by separate transport.

Where notice is given, riders can be collected free of charge within a 3 mile radius .

It is sometimes possible to book at short notice: just phone us, send us an email or fill up the enquiry form located on the homepage.

The O’ Sullivan family look forward to welcoming you to Killarney Riding Stables!”
