The Mucklagh Hut is one of three purpose-built shelters on the Wicklow Way long-distance trail. It's a little off the main route but worth the detour, especially in bad weather. The hut provides basic but comfortable shelter for a break or overnight.

The Irish saint St. Kevin (c. 498–618 AD), from a noble family in Leinster, was trained as a monk and then sought solitude – here in Glendalough as a hermit. Around 540, he withdrew to this remote valley to live in seclusion, asceticism, and prayer. Legends tell that he had deer, otters, and birds as friends. But as it sometimes happens: disciples soon followed him, and a monastic community was established (545 AD), which developed into one of the most important monasteries in Ireland (heyday: 10th–12th centuries). A 30-meter-high round tower (10th–11th centuries), the ruins of the cathedral (1214), a stone church (St. Kevin's Kitchen), and a house still remain. – Very pretty and mystical, the whole thing in the middle of the cemetery.

One of the three shelters on the Wicklow Way: square, practical, and good. With a fire pit and bench. A good shelter from the rain and a good place to spend the night.

A highly recommended hostel on the Wicklow Way, in the style of a youth hostel: clean and very friendly. Breakfast is continental but very plentiful. No dinner, no packed lunch. (Pizza can be ordered.) Private kitchen available.

Ireland is famous for its round towers, and this one in Glendalough is one of the most famous of them all. They were normally built between the 9th and 12th centuries and were used for calling people to prayer. In the late In the late 19th century, the conical top of the round tower in Glendalough was hit by lighting, destroying it. At 30 metres high, it is an imposing sight and the centrepiece of this ancient monastic centre.

Disgusting what garbage hikers dump here

Seen from the south, this is no longer true
