The Wicklow Way at Barr Rock, County Wicklow

Wicklow Way

The Wicklow Way is an eighty-one-mile long-distance trail that crosses the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland, mainly in County Wicklow. The trail runs from Marlay Park in the southern suburbs of Dublin through County Wicklow and ends in the village of Clonegal in County Carlow.

The way is waymarked by posts with a yellow "walking man" symbol and a directional arrow. Typically completed in five to seven days, it is one of the busiest of Ireland's National Waymarked Trails, with up to 24,000 people a year walking the most popular sections. The Way is also used regularly by a number of mountain running competitions. (Read more)
