| GAP OF DUNLOE, CO. KERRY.-In the splendid scenic region which enframes the matchless Lakes of Killarney, there is no more striking feature than the awe-inspired Gap of Dunloe-a wild mountain pass, lying between the Mcgillicuddy Reeks and the Tomies Range, and having an extent of four miles, passing through some of the weirdest highland country on the planet. Precipices, almost covered, in summer, by heather, furze and other flowering shrubs, thretheningly overhang the pass; and a rapid mountain torrent, the Loe, which gives name to the defile, thunders along the rock bed beneath. |
