A trip to the mountains is a great way to spend a day so many spots to see on the drive up and if it is a clear day it is all the more worth while as you can see all ahead of you the wild flowers, shrubbery,animals roaming on the hills and down to the road in some cases,some... More

If you are interested in walking this is the place to go.Walk at your own pace . No real climbing so it would suit any reasonably fit walker. Beautiful scenery. Close to city, so you could access the walk by public transport. More

Lovely views and unexpected vistas. Better on a fine day as if wet etc the cloud can be low = no views. Stunning. Some nice villages if you follow the sort of tourist trail - although that is easy as there arent many other roads!! More

The mountains south of Dublin are so close to the city that it takes less than an hour to access some of the most beautiful parts. A lifetime away from the doom and gloom that we citizens are bombarded with! Food for the soul! More

Djouce is very popular. Get there early to avoid the crowds. Full mountain gear needed in bad weather but great views in good weather. More

Low lying foothills overlooking Dublin and Dublin Bay, little in the way of public transport and car-parks that are often locked. Beware of car-thefts so leave nothing in view in your parked car. Poor sign posting and directions to the specific sections of the hills. Nice views and varied flora and fauna. Suits most fitness levels. More

Great drive and day out. Bring a picnic and combined with a trip to Powerscourt and Mount Usher gardens would be very worthwhile More
