The Wicklow Way 2nd ed

Jacquetta Megarry

This new edition is based on a fresh research trip in Spring 2008; it has many route updates, 30 extra photographs and explains new options for accommodation.

The Wicklow Way is Ireland's first and most popular Waymarked Way, running between Marlay Park (Dublin) and Clonegal, 82 miles (132 km) to the south. It offers varied and scenic walking on the flanks of the rugged Wicklow mountains with loughs and waterfalls, passing historic buildings and hospitable villages. Much of the route lies over 1600 feet (500 metres) giving glorious views. Lower sections run through forests and farmland, over a mixture of tracks, roads and pathways rich in wildlife.

It contains all you need to plan and enjoy your holiday:
