Reaching the tall fingers of Eightercua
is a majestic sight, particualrly if you are taking in the natural beauty of the Ring of
Kerry. The tallest stone is 3m high, and the alignment is a good fit to line up on the
midwinter sunset (33).The stones are visible from the N70 highway (on the left if heading for Kenmare). |
They present a striking sight from the
road (see right) though some of the most arresting views are to be had from other angles
(see above) |
