Uragh Stone Circle, Stone circle in County Kerry, Ireland
The circle contains four small megaliths arranged around a central stone, with the largest standing stone reaching a height of 10 feet.
Constructed during the Bronze Age around 2500 BCE, this megalithic monument stands as part of a collection of 79 stone circles in the Cork-Kerry region.
The stone circle's northeast-southwest alignment suggests possible connections to ancient astronomical observations and ceremonial practices of early Irish communities.
Visitors can reach the site via a narrow road from Kenmare, with parking for three vehicles and an entrance fee of 2 euros.
The stone circle sits between Lough Inchiquin and Lough Cloonee Upper, with a waterfall visible in the distance against the mountains.
