In reply to KehCL. I had a friend drop me off. Not sure if it's possible with public transportation.

Thank you for your description! My cousins and I are starting in Marlay Park and walking to Clonegal this summer. We are hoping to do it in 5 days. My mother was born and raised in Clonegal and my cousins are all from there. So, we are being dropped in Dublin and walking home.
We are considering:
Day 1: Marlay Park to Enniskerry
Day 2: Enniskerry to Glendalough
Day 3: Glendalough to Glenmalure
Day 4: Glenmalure to The Dying Cow
Day 5: The Dying Cow to Clonegal
As an experienced hiker – are we being a bit aggressive? I have done the Marlay Park to Glendalough bit before, and with no training whatsoever, I was quite sore! I am getting myself prepared this time around! Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

In reply to Christine Judd. @Christine - My pleasure. I only encountered a few other hikers the first few days but there will be lots of day hikers once you reach the Wicklow Mountains. I also met a few other hikers at the accommodations I stayed at which was nice as I was also walking by myself. Hope that helps.

Thanks for your comprehensive and informative outline of your trek. I am thinking of walking 3-4 days of the Wicklow Way in September. Do you think there are likely to be other people on the track at this time of year? I don’t really want to walk with a group but don’t want to be completely isolated either. I have done a few multi day walk in other countries but am not from Ireland so am unsure about walking conditions etc. Thanks for any comments…I realise that you cannot really be definitive in your reply.
