Glendalough, Co. Wicklow, Ireland * A walk around Glendaloughs Upper lake
After a wonderful day at Bloom we headed to Glendalough, Co. Wicklow to enjoy the peace and beauty. It was my first time visiting and definitely wont be my last. On our way down to the lake we noticed a hostel which looked like it would be a really good place to stay.
Glendalough is a glacial valley. There is the remains of of a monastic site near the lower lake and a caher (an old stone Fort) near the upper lake.
Sorry about the quality both my phone and usual camera were dead. This was from a really old Olympus camera and I noticed how much more difficult it was to film on.

Wild Ireland: Glendalough in Autumn, County Wicklow, Ireland
Glendalough (Gleann Dá Loch), meaning 'The Valley of the Two Lakes' is a glacial valley in County Wicklow, Ireland, renowned for an Early Medieval monastic settlement founded in the 6th century by St Kevin. Situated in the Wicklow Mountains National Park and boasting some of Ireland's best mountain scenery with its deep moody lakes, rushing rivers and tumbling waterfalls, the Glendalough Valley is among the country's top tourist attractions offering incredible walking opportunities. From the 6th century monastic ruins with their iconic round tower near the Lower Lake, to the C19th lead mines at the 'Miners' Village' at the far end of the Upper Lake, Glendalough is a landscape replete with history and heritage. Autumn is one of the finest times to visit as the deciduous trees and bracken turn rich shades of russet, orange and yellow, and the deer rut (mating season) is at its height.
Our circular route took us from the monastic site skirting the western side of the Lower Lake, past the shore of the Upper Lake and along the Miners' Road towards the zig-zag track up to Van Diemen's Land and the Glenealo Valley. From here we followed the boardwalk along the Spinc and the descent to the Poulanass Waterfall, before passing the eastern side of the Lower Lake along another boardwalk back to the monastic site.
