Gorgeous flowing waterfall. Our taxi driver told us that it’s not the biggest waterfall, but it’s a waterfall (I think he was underselling it just a tad). You could hike or as go to the parking lot and take a short walk to the waterfall. It’s free to enter and dogs are allowed. It was snowing when we went (which we were told multiple times was an anomaly) but we were able to take a taxi from the city center and then head in from the parking lot. We had no cell service here so I would recommend downloading a map of the area beforehand. There is a road that also leads to Muckross House that’s about a 20-30 minute walk. There’s a nice view of the area further up on the stairs. I would recommend wearing shoes with good traction as it was a bit muddy even on the short walk we had.

Gorgeous!!! I wish we could have spent more time in Killarney. The waterfall is not too far of a long walk and also has trails close by. The mountains are nestled across the street as well. Definitely worth exploring!!

The waterfall is really pretty and is a very easy 10 minute walk from the parking lot. The parking lot is small, but we were lucky enough to find a spot. Once you see it and take a few photos, there isn't much else to do there except hike.

This was an incredible waterfall to view, but it was oh so difficult to find. We used Google Maps to try and locate it, which caused us to park in the "wrong" parking lot." After hiking for at least 45 minutes, we finally found the base of the waterfall, but it necessitated walking back up a VERY steep hill. If you just want a short walk and not an actual hike in the woods (although the hiking is beautiful), be sure you're at the correct parking lot which is actually labeled, "Torc Waterfall."

Our tour guide added a stop here as an extra feature, and I'm glad he did. There is a short walk, with a beautiful waterfall. The area is quite pretty and peaceful. The waterfall reminded me of Bushkill Falls back in the Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania, USA.

Rhododendrons abound along the brook flowing from the Torc along the path to this waterfall. There is a hiking path around to the top of the falls but there wasn’t time for that. It’s a very refreshing way to stretch our legs and be immersed in nature!

Torc Waterfall was so beautiful. Only a short 5 min walk from the parking lot. We actually wouldn't have minded a longer walk because the forest was breathtaking! The moss covered boulders, the vine wrapped trees, everything your eyes can see is beautiful. The visit is FREE and only a few min into the Ring of Kerry. Absolutely worth it!!!

A bit of a tight squeeze in the car park, even for our tiny hire car, but it was worth it, to walk up to the waterfall. Unfortunately our visit to Ireland has coincided with some “soft” weather, which at least meant that there was a fair flow of water through the falls. The lichens and mosses on the surrounding trees created a magical atmosphere; we felt we had stepped into a film set! Clearly a popular destination, with many visitors.

We walked from Muckross House to the Torc Waterfall. The signposts were clear and the track was easy to follow through woods and by a lake. The actual waterfall wasn’t particularly fast flowing because Ireland hasn’t had much rain recently but everyone who arrived at the designated spot took photos of themselves with the falls in the background. DONT GO THE THE LOOS HERE! They were disgusting.

Beautiful waterfall! Much better in person than pictures, obviously. Worth a trip while you're in Killarney. My husband and I hiked from the city center and back. It was about an hour and a half one way. Very easy to follow largely paved pedestrian path. You can also park a short ways away or hike about 30 minutes from Muckross House and Gardens. Either option would be doable for most. There are public bathrooms on site. Three trails in the area to observation points or around Torc mountain. These looked a bit steep and some involved uneven stone steps. We didn't hike them because we still had to hike back to town.
