Tips

The river crossing on the trail to Glendalough is a delightful adventure that adds a touch of wilderness to your journey. As you navigate the stepping stones or cross the bridge, the gushing sound of the river accompanies you, creating a harmonious symphony with the rustle of the leaves and the songs of the birds.

The starting point for the various Glendalough treks, this small bridge allows you to see the round tower of the historic complex in the distance, as well as admire the small river which, contrary to what you might think, does not feed the two lakes of Glendalough.

Wonderful view of the lake, quiet walk without difficulty with little difference in altitude.
