Wicklow Mountains National Park

Absolutely breathtaking National Park featuring forests, waterfalls, alpine tundra, wildlife, and historical sites like St. Kevin's Monastery and the old Glendalough Lead Mines. There are also lots of wild deer.

Very beautiful park with reasonable entry fee, €5 for a car entry, plenty of parking even when extremely busy. Food and drink available to purchase, expensive but good quality. Amazing views and wild animals if you're lucky! Wonderful experience would definitely return.

Wicklow Mountains National Park is a true gem in County Wicklow, offering truly breathtaking views that make it a must-visit destination. It's a remarkably peaceful and serene place, perfect for escaping the everyday hustle. Summer is an ideal time to explore, especially if you're keen to trek to the beautiful waterfalls. Just remember to wear comfortable shoes, as there can be a bit of walking involved! The park is suitable for all ages, with trails that cater to various fitness levels. Don't miss the fascinating monastic sites, particularly at Glendalough, which add a rich historical dimension to the stunning natural landscape.

Fantastic park when you like to leave the huzzle and buzzle from the busy city behind for a few moments. Great walking paths and fantastic nature to enjoy. There are ponds to visit, medieval Towers and ruins of buildings. And before you know it you're in the middle of a forest. Just wonderful.

Very beautiful national park. Has anton of hiking trails, beautiful views, waterfalls, places to see, etc. highly recommend anyone to visit the area, you will not regret it.

I visited Glendalough today, and it truly feels like one of nature’s greatest gifts. The drive through the Wicklow Mountains is breathtaking, with winding roads leading down into the valley. Once there, the environment is absolutely serene and refreshing , pure natural beauty. The hiking trails are well worth it, and walking through the lush greenery was an amazing experience. I especially loved visiting the two lakes, which are simply stunning and peaceful. Glendalough is a place I really love, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy Ireland’s natural wonders.

What a scenic easy hike! We took several routes because we felt like exploring tho it did rain a couple of times but some sunshine did help me capture beautiful shots & therecwas a rainbow! , getting here from dublin we didn’t rent a car so, we took the train to Wicklow station then an uber but at the park no uber will pick you up to get us back to the station so we walked to laragh about 20 minutes where the 181 bus goes all the way back to dublin

Would have loved to have more time for this place. Driving to here was the greatest views of Ireland's countryside and mountains. The park itself is great with clean facilities, foodtrucks, a little "beach", and great trails. Markings were very easy to follow!
