W0165 : Lough Akinkeen and surrounding track and forestry system
taken 14 years ago, 8 km ENE of Bunane, Co Kerry, Ireland
Lough Akinkeen and surrounding track and forestry system
In my opinion this is an example of a poor land use policy, a previously pristine corrie and lake area has been "developed".
Aside from the obvious visual vandalism the forestry plantation is ridiculously small and uneconomic although the higher track (not shown on my 2000 OS map) seems to indicate that there are ambitions to develop this venture further.
