Description
Somewhere on the high road in Glendalough, Co Wicklow, Ireland.
County Wicklow (Irish: Contae Chill Mhantain, is a county in Ireland. It is part of the Mid-East Region and is also located in the province of Leinster. It is named after the town of Wicklow, which derives from the Old Norse name V�kingalag or Wykynlo.
Wicklow Mountains National Park covers part of a mountain range that extends over most of County Wicklow on the east coast of Ireland. The upper slopes and rounded peaks are blanketed with heath and bog. The open vistas are interrupted only by forestry plantations and the winding mountain roads. Fast-flowing streams descend into the deep lakes of the wooded valleys and continue their course into the surrounding lowlands.
The most visited area is the scenic Glendalough Valley where the ancient monastic settlement of St. Kevin is located.

Thanks a lot, Martina! I have been there just once and in the "lost" conditions :-) I was looking for the Upper Lake as I realize upper means somewhere on the top :-) Lucky you, to walk there as much as you want! :-)
