We drove through Sally's Gap and the land is quite barren with sheep sometimes dotting the open fields or on the road. Lots of bikers enjoying the tours and some beautiful spots to see as well. We loved the view of Lough Tay, gorgeous day so water sparkling and meadows so green with deer grazing on them. We could not really access Glanmacnacas Waterfall as it is on private land but we thoroughly enjoyed Glendalough and a hike up the white trail for some spectacular views. The trails are very well maintained and not too crowded even though it was the weekend and amazing weather. Poulanass Waterfalls and the enormous trees and lakes are lovely and we enjoyed a great ice cream too.

From Dublin to Wicklow Mountains that needs to take walk almost 1hour to lake but worth that also easy and flat road. Upper lake more pretty than lower lake. the sun and the reflection so pretty.

Went camping with family and friends June Bank Holiday weekend. Had a fantastic time and met lovely people. The walks and hiking with panoramic views to die for. We will return as there is so much to see and do.

We spent an entire day and the next morning in the Wicklow Mountains National Park. It is the ideal place if you like hiking. The scenery is so beautiful that I stopped every so often to just take in the spectacular views and snap a photo. We would especially recommend the white walking route (Spinc and Glenealo Valley). It is a trail of 9.5 km in the mountains, so it can get a little bit strenous at times, but the views over the lakes in Glendalough are out of this world and oh so rewarding. We even spotted lots of deer and sheep on our hike.

The Wicklow Mountains are a stunning expanse of nature. Everything is so green and due to the low temperature, it stays all green. There are so many outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, birdwatching, and scenic driving. A hike or walk here will ensure you some nature backed peace and calmness. the park is close to Dublin making for an easy 1/2 day or day trip. In my brain, mountains are supposed to be rock with no greenery: The Wicklow Mountains, however, are unlike many traditional mountain ranges and have lush greenery all over them. We did the Glendalough Lake upper and lower lakes hike.

What a beautiful space. Reasonable price to park and so easy to do. It’s so peaceful here and the energy is beautiful. The wonderful old trees are something to behold. We didn’t have the time to do many of the walks, just 1, but we enjoyed seeing the waterfall and lake. There are cute little food and coffee vans by the toilets. You could definitely spend hours and days coming back here.

Oh what an amazing day it was! We visited Wickalow and Glendalough with Damian from TOURS BY LOCALS! DAMIAN was totally awesome with his depth of knowledge, friendly , helpful and flexible ! The place was breathtakingly beautiful.. Glendalogh lakes and valley , Wickalow mountains, the moor land and other fabulous lakes there .. we’re mind blowing too ! Highly recommended this to anyone visiting Dublin ! It’s a short drive from there .
