Wicklow is home to many of Ireland’s most historic and majestic attractions. Take time today to visit Powerscourt House and Gardens
First stop will be Powerscourt House & Gardens situated just beyond your hotel, an 18th Century Palladian House in the foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, you will find a sublime blend of formal gardens and ornamental lakes together with secret hollows, rambling walks and over 200 varieties of trees and shrubs. On to the ancient monastic settlement at Glendalough. Glendalough is a truly spellbinding place - an ancient monastic settlement and two clear water lakes beneath the sheer cliffs of a deep valley, which was carved out by glaciers during the Ice Age. The monastic settlement was established by St. Kevin in the 6th century. From here, follow the signs for Avondale House. Built in 1779 Avondale House is set in the spectacular surroundings of Avondale Forest Park, now a museum to the memory of one of the greatest political leaders of modern Irish history, Charles Stewart Parnell, who was born in Avondale on 27th June, 1846. On to Avoca where you can take the Avoca Handweavers factory tour, famed worldwide for the quality of its woven fabrics.
Begin your vacation in the city of Dublin. The Vikings ruled Dublin for almost three centuries; they were expelled in AD902 only to return in AD917 and then occupied Dublin until their defeat by the Irish High King Brian Boru at the battle of Clontarf in 1014. From that date, the Vikings were a minor political force in Ireland, firmly opting for a commercial trading life.
In your detailed sightseeing itinerary you will find a map and directions for a short Medieval & Viking Dublin self-guided walk and this truly is a great way to discover Dublin’s connection with the Vikings. This walk has an accompanying audio which you can download if you want to and listen to it on your personal music player, although your Irish Tourism itinerary will have plenty of information if you prefer not to do this. The walk begins by the Dublin Tourism Centre which is itself is directly connected to the age of the Vikings as it stands on the location of a ‘Thigmote’ which was a meeting point during this time.
As the walk progresses and you approach Christchurch Cathedral you will see the outline of a Viking House. Within Christchurch Cathedral a treasury of information on the Vikings in Ireland is to be found by visiting the onsite Dublinia museum.
