Wicklow

Situated south of Dublin, County Wicklow is a coastal beauty in Ireland’s Ancient East.

It also holds the special privilege of being one of the three counties that make up Ireland’s “Viking Triangle”, so called because of the significant Viking influence to be found here, in Waterford and Wexford from the invading Norsemen. The crown of County Wicklow has to be the nature haven of Glendalough, a monastic settlement founded by St Kevin in the 6th century. Welcoming thousands of visitors each year, the Round Tower, churches and graveyard nestled here are crowned by an awesome natural backdrop of soaring mountains and glossy lakes.
