    Hiking

    The Upper Lake is probably the most formative lake in the Wicklow Mountains. When the water is calm, the mountains are reflected all around on the surface. Just a nice place. At the lake you can just relax, spend a day on the water and explore the surroundings.

    This lake gets so black from the peat/moor, you can see the lake from higher up.
