lovely waterfall that was sadly a bit short of water to get the full gushing effect but still worth the climb. There is a free carpark within 200 metres so don't be caught out with all the signs telling you to park elsewhere and then pay to be taken by the jaunty cars, you will still have to climb from...

Very beautiful waterfall. It is recommended a walk around the forests surrounding the waterfall. Waterfall is very close to the main road, so for those not willing to walk much you can visit the waterfall and back in the car in 10 minutes. More

Torc Waterfall is a lovely place within the Muckross House estate. It is a short and easy path to the waterfall, especailly if you take a jaunting cart or drive. I have also walked the path from Muckross House, That is a long walk, but well worth it, as you walk among beautiful forested paths that include rhododendrons, so especially... More

The waterfall is an easy walk away from the parking lot with a slight incline. Pretty impressive falls good for pictures. If you close I would recommend stopping. More

We stopped at the Torc waterfall on our drive through Killarney National Park. It is about a 5 minute walk up a paved path to see the top part of the waterfall. It was a pretty waterfall, but not the most majestic we've ever seen. More
