A stunning, secluded spot just south of Dublin, you'll be able to explore the lakes and waterfalls and discover the monastic ruined city of St.Kevin and see one of the finest round towers in Ireland. You'll have around 2 hours to soak up its beauty and discover the walks on offer.
Afterwards, you will be taken to a sheepdog herding demonstration. This is definitely a must-see for all as you see the intelligence of the sheepdogs firsthand and learn why they're the perfect farm companion. Travel through the Wicklow Mountains, admiring the changes in scenery as you head into the breathtaking ancient glacial valleys of the Wicklow Gap.
