Eleven itineraries, every kind of walker
Walk the Wicklow Way in a Week
Day-by-day guide to walking the full Wicklow Way from Marlay Park to Clonegal — with distances, highlights, accommodation and practical tips for every one of the seven official stages.
Glendalough Weekender
The monastic city on Saturday morning, the Spinc in the afternoon, Poulanass Waterfall and the Green Road on Sunday. Everything Glendalough offers, in the right order, with where to stay and eat.
South Wicklow in 3 Days
Based at Madeline's in Tinahely — the Railway Walk, Tomnafinogue Woods, Mangan's Loop, Shillelagh, Aghowle Church and Coollattin Park. South Wicklow at its unhurried best.
A Perfect Weekend in Wicklow
The Spinc on Saturday, Powerscourt Waterfall on Sunday, and Irish stew at the Wicklow Heather in between. The itinerary we send everyone who asks "what should I do for a weekend away?".
The Wicklow Way in 7 Days
The classic end-to-end. Marlay Park to Clonegal over 7 walking days, with a pre-booked accommodation at every stop. Bag-transfer option available through partner hauliers.
Family-Friendly Weekend
Buggy-friendly walks only: the Railway Walk, Avondale Forest, Meeting of the Waters, and an optional afternoon at Clara Lara Funpark. Ice-cream stops built in.
The South Wicklow Slow Weekend
Tinahely as your base, Madeline's Accommodation as your bed, and the Railway Walk, Tomnafinogue Woods and Kyle Loop as your days. The anti-Glendalough itinerary — all the scenery, none of the crowds.
Wicklow for the Reluctant Walker
Powerscourt Gardens, Mount Usher Gardens, Lough Tay viewpoint, Russborough House. Maximum scenery, minimum sweat. For the walker who didn't sign up for a walking holiday.

History & Heritage Weekend
Glendalough monastic city, Wicklow Gaol, Russborough House, Avondale (Parnell's home), the Tinahely Courthouse Arts Centre. Heritage first; walks as interludes.
Mindful Wicklow
The quietest walks and the quietest places — Lough Tay viewpoint at dawn, Mount Usher Gardens, Avondale Forest, Devil's Glen. No crowds, no phone signal, no agenda.
