Wicklow Mountains National Park Boundary Map

Covering circa.22,000 hectares, The Park has the distinction of being the largest of Ireland’s six National Parks. It is also the only one located in the east of the country.The National Park extends over much of the Wicklow mountains.

Upland blanket bog and heath cover the upland slopes and rounded peaks. The wide open vistas are interrupted only by forestry plantations and narrow winding mountain roads. Fast-flowing streams descend into the deep lakes of the wooded valleys and continue their course into the surrounding lowlands.
