The fire at Scartaglin did not pose a threat to houses and was dealt with by fire units from Castleisland and Killarney.
Meanwhile, several units of the fire service in Kerry are understood to have attended wildfires in the south and the east of the county overnight.
The wildfires took hold despite the annual gorse burning ban coming into effect on the first of this mont.
