The World

For today’s Geo Quiz, we’re going around in circles. Cairo and Beijing have ring roads, London has an orbital, and Washington’s got a beltway. Route 9 encircles Hong Kong, and Highway 1 goes around around Kabul and Kandahar. We’re looking for another of these circular routes.
The one we want you to name is in south-west Ireland. Starting from Killarney, this 110 mile long road goes around the Iveragh Peninsula. The popular tourist route passes through towns with names like Sneem, Cahersiveen, and Killroglin. Looking westward there are views of the Atlantic, turnaround and you’ll see the mountains known as Macgillycuddy’s Reeks. So Google it, Mapquest it, or phone a friend.
