Minister of State for Regional Economic Development at the Department of Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs, Mr. Michael Ring TD has today confirmed that over €750,000 of capital investment for Killarney National Park.

This figure is in addition to funding already allocated towards the completion and opening of Killarney House and Gardens.

The funding, which is part of the Department's Capital Programme for the National Parks and Wildlife Service, is aimed at priority capital projects identified within the country's 6 National Parks and 80 statutory Nature Reserves. 

Over a third of the funding is allocated towards the repair of internal roadways within the National Park, while a fifth of the funding is intended to address the consequences of recent flood damage. 
 
Minister Ring said, "This capital investment in our Killarney National Park helps build on the very important tourist product we have in this country, and in particular in the South West, which will have a knock-on effect by way of increased tourist numbers and revenue for rural areas."
