Great historical place. Been here 3 times now. Always worth a visit. Very tranquil. Visiting Glendalough was a truly special experience. The valley is breathtaking, surrounded by mountains and lakes that create an almost magical atmosphere. The historic monastic site gives a fascinating insight into Ireland’s past, with its round tower and ancient stone buildings still standing strong. Walking through the trails is both peaceful and inspiring, with views at every turn. It’s a place where nature and history come together perfectly, making it an absolute highlight for anyone exploring Ireland. It really good to be on an ancient glacier, to be able to see and feel all the nature and breathe the fresh air! The landscape is beautiful! Glendalough is a mix of history and nature, with peaceful forests, serene lakes, and fascinating ruins like the old stone monastery and cemetery. It’s definitely worth seeing, but be aware it can get crowded with tour buses, which takes away from some of the quiet atmosphere. For a more tranquil experience, try to visit early or later in the day. Absolutely gorgeous place to visit! Ireland has dozens of incredibly places to see but this one stands out, along with Murlough Bay in the North. Put this on your bucket list, but plan on spending the whole day. Food and coffee available via food trucks if you don't pack a picnic lunch. My favourite place in Ireland, it is free, different trekking routes, the use of poles is not mandatory but it is recommended for long routes (cobbled climbs) the buses leave from Stephens Green at 11 am (kevin’s bus) 1:30hrs of travel, the last bus from the park for return to Dublin leaves 17:40, I recommend arriving on time because if you miss it you must wait two hours to take a van that takes you to Ashford, then bus to Bray and then bus to Dublin (3 hours) The Glendalough Visitor Center sits at the foot of the Wicklow Mountains. It is a great place to relax and enjoy the Irish countryside. It also has an historic cemetery with an iconic Egyptian style hollow obelisk, ancient church remnants and scores of gravestones. The oldest one we found had a DOD from the mid 1700's. Others were so old, the dates were now too obscure to read. There are winding paths that take you past quiet streams and you can also follow the paved trail to a hidden lake. The walking trails are easy to navigate and require only low level exertion. There is a snack bar where you can purchase chips, candy, drinks and pre-packaged sandwiches if you need a quick snack. Plan to stop in if you are in the area. It is worth your time. It's a very nice place. It's quieter than most places. Or maybe it was because the weather was overcast.
