The Wicklow Overland
The Wicklow Overland
Set off from Ballyfin for a gloriously wild day in Wicklow with our partners Orangeworks. Travel by car, or dial up the excitement with a direct helicopter transfer to Glenmacnass, where your overland adventure begins in earnest.
From there, Orangeworks’ expert drivers take you deep into the Wicklow Mountains, well beyond the usual routes. Expect big views, a few lively surprises, artisan food and drink and a chance to try your hand at some traditional pursuits too. We can tailor the day to your interests and may include Glenmacnass, Wicklow Wolf Hop Farm, Lough Dan and Lough Tay, better known as Guinness Lake.
Begin with a scenic transfer to Hollywood, Co. Wicklow.
Meet the Orangeworks adventure team and get acquainted before the day takes off.
Things begin with a flourish at Glenmacnass waterfall, where axe throwing is paired with wild Irish smoked salmon. A rather spirited combination.
Pause for a whiskey toast beside one of Ireland’s most iconic views. Not a bad place to raise a glass.
Sit down to a relaxed lunch at The Coach House, a local favourite known for hearty Irish fare.
Explore a secluded private valley, then settle in for an Irish cheeseboard and drinks from the mobile Grenadier bar, all with a view worth lingering over.
Return to Hollywood for your transfer back to Ballyfin by car or helicopter.
