Activities

 

Recreation

The Park is a popular recreational resource. However, restrictions may apply to certain activities due to conservation considerations.

Walking Trails of Glendalough

There are nine way-marked walking trails around the valley of Glendalough, varying from a half hour stroll to a four hour hillwalk.

Mountain Safety

All visitors to the Park are asked to observe considerations for their own safety. In the event of an accident, Wicklow has two mountain rescue teams.

Leave No Trace

The seven principles of Leave No Trace aim to minimise the impact that we have on the wild places that we visit.

Events

The Park organises a series of free events for the public each year. Events range from special interest walks, such as tree identification walks, bat walks, wildflower walks, to a series of lectures, to family fun days for children.
