Landscape to fall in love with
Devil’s Glen is a breath-taking valley in the heart of Wicklow. The dramatic steep rockface surrounds a gorge through which the Vartry River flows. The area is rich with flora and fauna, from beech and ash trees to beautiful ferns, unusual mosses, and colourful flowers. Beautiful trails and relaxing walks that beg to be explored wind through the valley and the surrounding area.
The Devil’s in the details
The waterfall at the top the Glen gives the area its name. Prior to the construction of the Vartry reservoir, the river thundered down the waterfall and the sound of it echoed through the valley. It was so loud that it was said to “sound like some satanic power announcing great doom.” And so, the location became known as the Devil’s Glen.
