POWERSCOURT WATERFALL
Powerscourt Waterfall – Ireland’s Highest Waterfall
Set at the foot of the Wicklow Mountains, Powerscourt
Waterfall is Ireland's highest at 121m (398ft.) and is 5km
from Powerscourt Estate and
Gardens.
As you drive from the gate lodge towards the
Waterfall
you are surrounded by Beech, Oak, Larch and Pine trees, some
of which were planted over 200 years ago. Look out for the
Giant Redwoods, which are native to Northern California and
grow up to 80m high.
Visitors are welcome to have a summer picnic or barbecue at
Powerscourt Waterfall and there is a playground for
children. There is plenty of wildlife to enjoy at the
waterfall including birds such as the Chaffinch, Cuckoo,
Raven and the Willow Warbler and the Sika Deer. You may even
spot a red squirrel or two.
