Kilbehenny
is a quiet village which nestles
beneath the Galtee Mountains. It is unique in that
it lies on the borders of three counties Limerick,
Cork and Tipperary.
The majestic
Galtee Mountains,
which offera
wonderfulopportunity for hiking,
are visited by thousands each year.
Explore woodland, observe mountain deer, various
types of wildlife, and enjoy many forest walks. Use Kilbehenny
as the perfect starting point, and very soon
Kilbehenny Community Centre, with its new
extension, will have all the facilities climbers
need. More details later.
There are five
corrie lakes located on the northern slopes of
the Galtees: Muskry, Farbraige, Borheen, Diheen
and Curra. These have a good stock of
brown trout

The village itself is bounded by the small River Funcheon, and a little stream,
the Behana, which flows into the Funcheon.
For a true taste of Irish life, we, the people
of Kilbehenny, invite you to visit our Community
Centre and join in with our traditional and local pastimes.
