Wicklow Mountains National Park, Ireland
Spanning nearly 23,000 hectares and located south of Dublin, Wicklow Mountains National Park is the largest of Ireland’s six national parks and the only one in the east. It is also the largest area of continuous high ground in Ireland, with stunning rugged peaks, some of which are among the highest in the country. The park features wide-open vistas, winding mountain roads, and fast-flowing streams which descend into deep lakes within wooded valleys.
