  • The white loop in Glendalough is a 9km trail. Starting at the info centre at the Upper Lake, I walked the loop anti-clockwise up the valley floor, past the miners village, and over the Spinc.

    How long does the trail take? Looks great!

      I’d say maybe 2 - 4hrs, depending on fitness and how fast you want to go / how many view points you want to stop at 😄

    I love the robin sneaking up on your sandwich crumbs. But you didn't leave him any!

      I loved him too! I've met some very inquisitive robins this winter, feel like I've made some lovely friends. There was a lot of natural food about for him so I didn't feel too mean 😆

    I want to go to Wincklower Mountains. Usually I am not happy about very touristic places, since I do like hiking alone, but if most of the tourists are Irish I am kind of happy to meet them 😁

    What a Winter's day treat! It really looks like you had the place to yourself from start to finish, it looks fantastic!

      I have never seen the valley so quiet - it really was incredibly cold 😆 a magic wander I’ll savour 🥰

    Bravo walking the right direction . .
    Pity about the sleepers that make the walk precarious at certsin intervals .
    Have they finished the camaderry route yet ?

    • @ToughSoles
      @ToughSoles  3 місяці тому +1

      As far as I know work is still on-going with Camaderry!

    I am out on the TA in NZ and went into a pub in Christchurch and had some Glendalough poitin. It was delicious! But I don't remember there being a distillery there when I hiked through. Is there one? Also, try it if you haven't! I am probably going to come back to Ireland next year to do the Irish Way, North to South, you guys have any interest? ;)

      I think the distillery is down the road in Newtown mount kennedy. If there's a distillery on site, I haven't noticed it and I hike around this area every few months.

    I have done that walk many times. Can be done with no serious hill walking experience or gear. Great place to take a walk with friends. Love video guys.
