For the first time in over 260 years of tourism in Killarney there are four lady Jarveys operating in the Muckross House Jarvey designated area of Killarney National Park.

Mikayla Maunsell from Knocknagoshel and Lauren O’Leary from Listry, drive jaunting cars from the Muckross House pick-up area.

Kaylyn Murhill, Muckross is based at the National Park’s main entrance near her home and Laura Cotter, Castleisland works near Torc Waterfall.

The ladies all have a love of horses, Kaylyn Murhill is a third generation Jarvey from Muckross while Lauren, Mikayla and Laura all drive for another Muckross Jarvey Con Courtney.

“I inherited it from my father Hugh," Kaylyn told the Killarney Advertiser. “It is not really a job, it is more like a hobby. It is great craic, you get to meet people of all nationalities, you learn as much from them and they learn from us out in the outdoors, the mountains and lakes, what is not to like about it?”
