Wicklow Mountains National Park

Wicklow Mountains National Park covers much of upland Wicklow and contains an area of 23,000 hectares. Our Education Centre is located at the Upper Lake in Glendalough. We offer a free Nature Awareness programme for primary schools with several themes, designed for all age groups. We also offer field study days to secondary schools for both leaving cert, junior cert and TY students. As this site is managed by National Parks & Wildlife Service (NPWS), school tour visits are permitted free of charge provided certain conditions are met. We only take bookings by phone (0404-45656).
