The Wicklow Way is on the one side a good trail for beginners, it is well marked and the amount of climbs is doable. On the other side you will need to be well prepared as I mean you need to make sure you pack the right gear. There are barely stays at the Wicklow Way and thereby only a few pubs. So sleeping gear will be necessary, also cooking gear, food for some days and a water filter.

Remark that the weather can change very rapidly and that the sources of water are limited!

As you follow in Malone's footsteps, you'll be captivated by the ever-changing vistas that unfold before you. The trail is well-maintained and offers a range of difficulties.
