Farranfore

From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.

Farranfore (An Fearann Fuar in Irish, meaning "the cold land") is a small town in County Kerry, Ireland. It lies on the N22 road approximately midway between Tralee (17 km) and Killarney (15km) and on the railway line connecting those two towns. Farranfore is notable in particular for its small airport, known as Kerry Airport. The single runway at Farranfore saw intensive use when Ryanair mounted a boycott of Shannon International Airport (north of the River Shannon in County Clare) and routed its flights to and from Germany through Kerry Airport.
