Why Visit Macreddin Village, Ireland

Welcome to one of the most scenic places in Ireland, the region of County Wicklow. Located in the breathtaking Wicklow Valley and surrounded by magnificent mountains, picturesque rivers, and deep lakes, Macreddin Village attracts nature lovers from all over the world. Hundreds of tourists every year choose this peaceful village over the bustling cities to indulge in long walks, biking, fishing, and, of course, hiking. Dozens of fascinating landmarks are located in the village's area, and one visit definitely won't be enough to explore them all.

You can start your Macreddin Village itinerary with a walking tour to the Glendalough Valley. Its name can be translated as "the Valley of Two Lakes," and as the name suggests, you'll walk along two gorgeous lakes surrounded by a fairytale forest, huge boulders, and steep cliffs. If you get tired of walking, there are plenty of abandoned ancient churches in the area, begging to be explored. Also, you can pay a visit to the Wicklow Mountains National Park and take a picture of its major sight, the Monastic Site with a Round Tower.

Optionally, take your time exploring the trails of Trooperstown and the Paddock Hill. Find the traces of an ancient farming community, try to spot the Round Tower of Glendalough, and enjoy the panoramic views over the Avonmore River and the Irish Sea.
