Idyllically set up against rolling hills to the west and the gorgeous pebbled beach of Wicklow Bay to the east, Wicklow is a beautiful old Irish town with an intriguing Viking history. The town's star attraction is the Old Gaol, exposing the harshness of prison life in the 18th century. Visitors can also look forward to exploring various natural attractions such as Silver Strand beach at the Wolohan campsite and the beautiful Powerscourt Waterfall on the river Dargle. For those who like to explore outdoors, the Great Sugar Loaf is a beautiful hill with a distinctive volcano-like shape where visitors can trek its slopes and witness the expansive panoramic views from the top.
