Dette vandfald er et majestætisk mesterværk af naturen og et absolut must-besøg destination. Vand styrter dramatisk fra en højde på 121 meter, hvilket skaber et fascinerende skue og gør det til det højeste vandfald i Irland. De robuste, gamle klippeformationer, der omgiver vandfaldet, bidrager til dets dramatiske tiltrækningskraft. Når du står nær Powerscourt-vandfaldet, skaber det blide brøl fra vandet en rolig og meditativ atmosfære, der beroliger sindet og beroliger sjælen. Vidste du, at det at være i naturlige omgivelser, især i nærheden af et vandfald, kan løfte dit humør og øge din generelle følelse af velvære.

Vi spiser frokost i Wicklows prisvindende restaurant nær Glendalough og tager til Glendalough-søerne og klosterstedet, en af Irlands smukkeste besøgendes destinationer. Beliggende i den frodige omfavnelse af County Wicklow, Irlands "Garden of Ireland", den mystiske Glendalough-dal, indhyllet i gamle legender og indrammet af det rolige vand i to glitrende søer, er et sandt bevis på Irlands naturlige pragt. Glendalough er ikke kun en destination; det er en rejse ind i hjertet af Irlands besjælende landskaber og rige kulturarv. I hjertet af Glendalough ser tiden ud til at stå stille, og verdens bekymringer forsvinder. Det er et sted, hvor fortid og nutid fletter sig sammen, hvor det naturlige og spirituelle harmonerer, og hvor du inviteres til at blive en del af dens fortryllende historie. Glendalough vinker dig til at tage på en rejse til Irlands smukkeste besøgsdestination, hvor magien er ægte, og hvert øjeblik er et eventyr, der venter på at udfolde sig.
Guinness Lake, også kendt som Lough Tay, ligger i hjertet af Wicklow Mountains. Det er en uberørt, månedsformet sø omgivet af rullende bakker og omfavnet af frodige skove. Dens krystalklare vand spejler himlen ovenpå, hvilket skaber et fantastisk og fængslende sted. Navnet "Guinness-søen" stammer fra dens mørke, torvfulde vande, som sammen med form af søen og den hvide sand på toppen ligner en perfekt hældt pinne af Guinness. Guiden vil fortælle dig nogle fascinerende historier om Guinness-familien og deres ejendom. Lough Tay optræder i Vikings, Excalibur og nogle andre film.

Incredible tour with Rory, the entire tour was quite educational and the scenery was breathtaking. Great lunch spot, great conversation and great trip. Highly recommend
Gardens and views are amazing. Have your camera ready. Nicely paced. Powerscourt cafe has excellent dessert options
Thank you for sharing your experience! Powerscourt and county Wicklow in general is certainly a photographer's dream, great to hear you enjoyed both the spectacular gardens and the stunning views. Also great to hear the pace of the day felt just right, allowing plenty of time to soak in the scenery. We hope to welcome you back to Ireland for more memorable adventures in the future!
Just finished our first day in Ireland, traveling with my grown son, for a private, day-long tour through the Wicklow Mountains to Glendalough and the Powerscourt Water Falls and Estate Gardens. It was wonderful! Diana arrived on time, ready to inform and please. We’re from the US, so driving on the left side felt a bit uneasy at first, but Diana took us from busy city streets in Dublin to rolling tight roads in the Wicklow Mountains with safe and competent driving. She was a wealth of knowledge about the history and landscape of the mountains and the monastic sites we saw and had researched particular questions we had about the Glendalough mythology and history that we asked about in advance of our trip. She provided ample background and introduction at each site but also gave us space and time to unhurriedly explore and experience the areas on our own. The tour itself cost approximately $100/hour for the two of each, not including the nominal cost of admission to each of the two sites. I am able to easily and unconditionally recommend Diana and Gateway to Ireland if you are looking for a stress-free, beautiful experience of the Wicklow Mountains/Glendalough and Powerscourt Estate in Ireland.
Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review. We're honoured that your first day in Ireland was spent exploring the Wicklow Mountains, Glendalough and Powerscourt with us. Starting a trip with a journey through the "Garden of Ireland" is a wonderful way to experience Ireland's natural beauty, history and culture. It was a pleasure helping bring the stories of Glendalough to life and discussing the history and mythology that make this ancient monastic settlement so special. We're especially pleased that the balance between guided commentary and independent exploration helped you enjoy the day at your own pace. Once again thank you for your trust, your curiosity and your recommendation. We hope the memories of Wicklow's mountain landscapes, historic sites and spectacular scenery remain a highlight of your Irish adventure for months to come.
We had a fantastic day with Rory and saw everything we hoped to see. Beautiful scenery and Rory was a great guide giving lots of interesting information. Loved our delicious lunch spot. Van was very comfy. Pickup and dropoff at our hotel was easy. Communication was perfect. 10/10 recommend this day trip.

I'm a local but I very much enjoyed this tour with a friend who was visiting Ireland. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the atmosphere relaxed. Would recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review! It's always a special compliment when someone from Ireland enjoys the tour as much as a visitor. We're delighted that both you and your friend had a relaxed and enjoyable day and that the guide's knowledge helped bring the places and stories to life. One of our goals is to help guests see Ireland from a fresh perspective, whether it's their first visit or they've lived here for years. Thanks once again for the recommendation - we truly appreciate it!
I had an amazing experience with Wicklow Mountain Tours in Dublin, especially thanks to our guide Diana. She was absolutely lovely to deal with, incredibly knowledgeable, and created such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere throughout the day. As a solo female traveller, having Diana as my guide made me feel genuinely safe and comfortable, which honestly makes such a difference when travelling alone. She never rushed me, was thoughtful and accommodating, and made the whole experience feel personal rather than like a generic tourist tour. What I appreciated most was that the day felt authentic and local, not overly commercial or touristy. Diana clearly knows the area deeply and tailored the experience to feel more personal and connected to the real Ireland. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin, especially solo travellers wanting a memorable and comfortable experience.
