If you’ve got an afternoon to spare, West Wicklow knows how to use it well. We love a little forest hike and a sauna to unwind. Some tasty bites from the cafes nearby, and maybe a water sport? Wicklow has plenty of options (or variety). Never a boring day in Wicklow, surely.
What's your local favourite?

{ENG below} Ogród Irlandii? To właśnie Wicklow – jeden z najpiękniejszych parków narodowych na wyspie! 🇮🇪
Zaledwie godzinę od stolicy czekają na Ciebie góry odbijające się w taflach jezior i historia ❤️
Jeśli planujesz podróż na Zieloną Wyspę, te miejsca muszą trafić na Twoją listę:
📜 Glendalough – mistyczna osada w dolinie dwóch jezior. Ruiny katedry z VI wieku sprawią, że poczujesz ciarki na plecach!
⛰️ Sally Gap & Eagles Crag – surowy, epicki krajobraz. To tu kręcono „Wikingów”.
🎬 P.S. I Love You Bridge – fanki i fani kultowego romansu, to tutaj! Idealne miejsce na sentymentalne zdjęcie.
🍺 Lough Tay – czyli słynne „Jezioro Guinnessa”. Ciemna woda i biały piasek z góry wyglądają dokładnie jak świeżo nalany kufel piwa.
🌲 Ballinastoe Woods – najbardziej „instagramowy” las w Irlandii. Wygląda jak portal do świata fantasy.
🌷 Powerscourt House & Gardens – ogrody, które National Geographic uznało za jedne z najpiękniejszych na świecie. Obok czeka najwyższy wodospad w Irlandii (121 m)! 💦
🚠 Beyond the Trees Avondale – spacer w koronach drzew i spiralna wieża z widokiem, który odbiera mowę.
Które z tych miejsc najbardziej do Ciebie przemawia?

Just south of Dublin, County Wicklow unfolds through forest walks, cold water swims, long coastal drives, and slow afternoons shaped by nature. Through Tricia’s eyes, the region becomes less about sightseeing and more about recalibrating — a place where wellness is woven into daily life rather than treated as a destination in itself.
From morning swims to quiet cafes, Tricia’s guide moves through Wicklow at a gentler pace — one grounded in ritual, fresh air, and returning to the body.

There are three lighthouses on Wicklow Head.
- The octagonal tower was built in 1781. Today, it is a selt-catering holiday home.
- The plain tower with no lantern was built in 1818 and was decommissioned as lightning struck in 1836.
- The lower tower was built in 1818 and is the present-day working lighthouse.
- Wicklow Head lighthouses are peace seeker’s haven with inspiring and refreshing views of the Irish Sea.
- The name Wicklow comes from the Viking word ‘Wykylo’ or ‘Viking’s
Loch’!

If you haven't hiked Glendalough, get to it! 💪🏻
As with any hike, it's important to wear the right gear.
People often ask me where they should buy good outdoor gear from and I can highly recommend @outwestclothing.ie . They're based in Dingle, Co. Kerry and will soon be opening a second store in Greystones in Co. Wicklow!
Their stuff is really high quality and it's made with sustainability in mind. I tried out my new Séasúr coat (3rd pic) on this hike and it was perfect.
I'm determined not to fill my page with ads, so if I'm recommending a brand, it's because I really do like their stuff and want to share it 🤟🏼
Check out the range on their website!

A handy one when the group chat can’t decide.
Bit of a cycle, some Spring blossoms, few pints for the after. (Some non-alcoholic option too!)
