Fabulous photos as ever.

Thing I learnt recently about Seefin (or similar spellings) is there are a number of them throughout the country. Been on one in Sheeps Head and another near Glenbeigh in Kirry. It's to do with Fi(o)nn McCumhail and one of his long treck - SuíFionn (sp?) - Fi(o)nn's seat. The mountain pass between Killarney and Waterville being BeallachOisín (Oisín's Path) from the same mythical era.

The lore for that one is that Fionn sat on it to wash his feet in the Shannon.

Is the lore also true that Fionn used to wash his ass in the reservoir in knocka?
