Riversdale House, Glendalough - B&B Guesthouse - Pictures of the surrounding countryside

Glendalough - The Glen of the Two Lakes - is a valley famous for its beauty and its historical and archaeological interest. The valley is home to one of Ireland's most atmospheric monastic sites, established by St. Kevin in the 6th century. The area also provides excellent rock-climbing, rough scrambling and ordinary hill walking.

All these pictures were taken in 2002 by photographer and artist David Brims, when he was staying at Riversdale House. They are all taken within about 3 miles of Riversdale House. See more pictures

All pictures are given with a map reference using the Discovery Series #56 - buy at Amazon.
