Powercourt Waterfall from Crone
Duration: About 1.5 hours
A lower level walk to base of the spectacular Powerscourt Waterfall. The first part of the walk is through pleasant woods, before opening out into the Powerscourt Waterfall valley. The valley itself makes a good spot for a picnic (there is also a cafe), while clambering over the rocks at the base of the waterfall is always a favourite with children.
Powerscourt Waterfall
Route
- Starting from the car park at Crone, follow the forest trail at the head of the car park. There are several twists and turns in the path, but ignore side paths and follow the route clearly marked with Wicklow Way signs.
- After a fairly long, level stretch, the path comes to a Y junction with a path to the left leading down hill. The downhill path has a gate, and so is easily spotted.
- Take the downhill path until the road into the Powerscourt Waterfall valley is reached.
- Follow the road to the waterfall itself.
- Return by the same route.
