ダブリンの峡谷・トップ4

The Scalp is a narrow valley that originated around 12,000 years ago during the last ice age, shaped by glacial forces. The Scalp, is a chasm or cleft situated to the west of the summit, a deep natural gorge with towering and sloping walls on either side. Enormous granite boulders, some weighing several tons, have tumbled down, creating a chaotic jumble of rocks. The surroundings give the impression that these massive rocks are suspended in their descent, posing a constant threat of tumbling onto unsuspecting travelers.

At Barnaslingan Wood, don't miss the breathtaking viewing spot. Gaze southward to the majestic Wicklow Mountains and take in the sweeping vistas across the picturesque valley. It's a perfect vantage point to soak in the beauty of nature's masterpiece.

The Glensoulan Valley on the River Dargle is a wonderful place to hike or cycle. Green fields and dense woodland flank the river as it winds through the mountains. In these landscapes, it's easy to see why Ireland is referred to as the Emerald Isle.

The wonderful, green Glencree Valley is an absolute highlight of the Wicklow Way and the Wicklow Mountains in general. The valley is traversed by the small, wild river Glencree and in spring, summer and autumn beautiful plants bloom there and speckle the landscape with the most varied of colors.

A lonely path over the Dargle Valley, where the river rushes. Unfortunately, only accessible from the west (ends abprupt on a private property and forces to turn around)

A lonely path over the gorge in which the Dargle raves down. Unfortunately, only accessible from the west (ends abprupt on a private property and forces to reverse)!

Scenic views south to Wicklow Mountains and across „The Scalp“ (the valley).
