Depends on the weather. I went on a day where it had just rained and misty, and was able to navigate a trail with a pair of running shoes. Some of the trails are a bit more intermediate and some might suggest hiking boots. But if you're on a 90-minute guided walk, I doubt they'll take you to anything strenuous as it's a large park where the easier trails take about 90 mins round trip.

Ciao! Sì, la rete prende benissimo

Yes. The monastic site is located within the park. You have to walk there, not far. But, we’ll worth it. Experience history and read the names of those who are buried there on the tombstones.

Heathers in Laragh. Perfect position. Try the walking over the Sally Gap. A desolate beauty. Or alternatively, the Wicklow Way.

Alexandre Sorry I can’t help anytime I have been to glendalough it has been by car

Your visit to Glendalough will take as long as you are prepared to stay there, and will depend on how much energy you have for walking. There are marked trails/routes graded from easy to difficult around Glendalough. The Visitor Centre in Glendalough sells a Trail Guide for only about €0.50, and this lists at least nine marked walking routes with the shortest distance being a few kilometres and the longest being about 11 kilometres, (about 6.5 miles). You could even consider the Wicklow Way, which is a 131km/81mile walking route starting in Marley Park, Co. Dublin and ending at Clonegal, Co. Carlow. The highest point is White Hill (630m/2,067ft).

As far as I remember the loop around the park has some ascent. See the walking trails at wicklowmountainsnationalpark. ie site... Download the brochure that includes all the trails (including distance and climb) - then, take the decision based on the capabilities of the person that will carry the baby...

Since you have a baby, also check out visitwicklow. Its has a family section for walks. They look fab. Have fun, its beautiful.

Hello Craig R I would recommend the Heather House BandB in Laragh. You can rent rooms or a self contained studio apartment. It is connected to the Wicklow Heather which is next door is a Restaurant and Bar and the breakfast and food in the restaurant is excellent. This BandB is also about 100m to Lynams Bar and is across the road from McCoys shop. Where it is located is hiker central for many trails which include Glenmacnass via Scarr or to Glendasan via Brockagh. It is a short distance to 1-2km to Glendalough and also and Glendasan and is close to Derrynane ridge and also Trooperstown All these valleys are accessible easily from Laragh. If you want to go a little further afield to Glenmalure and Lugnaquilla it is a drive of around 20mins but if you want to do this valley and be located in the Glenmalure Valley then stay in the Glenmalure Lodge which is a bar restaurant and cheap hotel. Finally so that you enjoy your walk go to eastwestmapping ie and get their maps especially for the glendalough area and maybe west Wicklow. Hope that helps
