Visited Victor's Way today and for the price it was well worth it. . . It was so peaceful there. I really felt in touch with nature and I am definitely going back. Would highly recommend it.

Amazing, from the entrance gate to the exhibition at the end, we loved it all. Top quality sculptures, all positioned thoughtfully, along a delightful forest walk. Such a surprise to find this in Wicklow, but so glad we did. We tried the forest bathing out for a laugh, but after a few minutes we realised it was not a laugh, it was relaxing and an experience we would love to repeat. Well worth the entrance fee.

We didn't know exactly what to expect. We were not disappointed. The sculptures are amazing and thought provoking. You really get from this as much as you want to get. Time is needed to sit and think at each sculpture. I loved the idea of the forest shower which is just lying in the woods on the timber bed and taking in the moment. We booked online in advance. There are toilets. The person checking regarding tickets is friendly and informative. There needs to be a sense of quiet here and respect for others who are visiting but while we did encouter a very loud familty, we just waited and let them pass by. I would visit here gain if I return to Wicklow.

What can I say? This place is magical. Its not just the sculptures... Its not just the setting... This wonderful place is a culmination of many things and is definitely more than the sum of its parts.
I highly recommend it.
Go... But don't be in a hurry. You could fly around here in less than an hour. But don't. Please don't.

I absolutely loved everything about it, its charm and laid back atmosphere really helps to embrace the tranquility of the space and of course the statues are amazing , I found it to be a very spiritual place without being in anyway religious .

Perfect day out for those trying to get away from crowds.
Also very interesting if looking for something different to do.
You could spend a few hours here meandering around the sculptures. We didn't have that time but still enjoyed the experience.
Well worth a visit and conveniently located off the main road to Laragh.

I am planning on visiting Ireland in September 2022, but I don't see a closing date for this year. I know it closes in the winter, but I don't know exactly what that means as far as dates. Would this park be open the first 2 weeks of September 2022?
Is there toilet facilities?

Yes. 2 or 3. One is called the Taj Mahloo.

Is there a contact number for this place I booked a ticket and I want to change the date due to rain and it being said on the website that it will be closed if rain happened. I don’t want to make the trip up 1 hour or more ?

Any updates on how tourists with no car get here?!

Get the 181 St Kevin's bus towards Glendalough. It stops at Dawson Street and you can get it further along the route. Get off at the Roundwood Inn stop and walk up to Victor's Way which is about a 25 minute walk away. Search 'Glendalough Bus' for timetable and stops.

We are visiting on Oct 28th-Nov 3rd and this is one of the bucket list items for me. Does it fully close at beginning of October or can you still visit??

As stated above, perhaps a bus? I get there from Glendalough by car & even have a challenge there. It's not exactly a tourist site. More like a spiritual adventure. I love it when i am on that side of Ireland.
