    Hiking

    The board walk goes right up overlooking Glendalough lake and beyond. We did the entire boardwalk as part of a hike to do Mullacor and Lugduff, both Irish Hewitts. A great hike.

    Hiking

    Thick floorboards with steel nails to prevent slipping in wet weather. And floorboards... so you don't sink into the peat.

    Hiking

    «Take a walk» over this popular walk leads you through some of the most spectacular scenery in «The Spinc». (The Name Spinc comes from the Irish «An Spinc» and means «Pointed hill»). It is a boardwalk, more than 600 wooden steps lead you to a viewing point overlooking the Upper Lakes.
