Kilcolman Bog Nature Reserve

The fen is located in a glacially eroded limestone hollow, south of the Ballyhoura Mountains in north Cork. It has been a traditional wintering ground for Greenland white fronted geese and thousands of duck and is also of great botanical importance, harbouring a number of plant species absent or extremely rare elsewhere in Co. Cork.  The reserve is comprised of 30 hectares, or which 9 are State-owned and 21 are privately owned.
