2. So much to explore and experience
From wandering around Glendalough, to discovering the history of the Wicklow Gaol. From cycling through the Sally Gap, to sailing in Greystones.

Wicklow truly has something for everyone!
3. It’s a foodie and craft beer lover’s dream
The Wicklow food and craft beer scene has exploded over recent years and there is a variety of restaurant, cafes, pubs and distilleries to cater for all tastes.

4. The Scenery
Destinations like Wicklow are few and far between. Here, visitors can enjoy the best of both worlds, from a diverse coastline to the stunning Wicklow Mountains.
