The Wicklow Uplands
The Wicklow uplands are renowned for their spectacular scenic beauty and unique landscape characterised by a large granite mass dividing the county from east to west. The hills have been shaped and sculpted by glacial erosion and weathering over the last 400 million years. The ‘uplands’ encompass the Wicklow Mountains and the surrounding hills and lowlands between the N11 in east Wicklow to the N81 in the west of the county.
