- St. Kevin's Way is a 26km linear trail through the beautiful Wicklow mountains. Starting in Hollywood, this route winds its way along the King River and through the Wicklow Gap, bringing you to Glendalough, the Monastic City that St. Kevin founded in the 7th century.

Breathtaking
Fantastic Ellie, can't wait for the next one.
Beautiful video thanks for sharing 👍
Beautiful video and trail. Love this time of year. 🥾
Great video. An area I'm so familiar with.
That looks amazing, that wee cottage is perfect
Such a peaceful and rewarding trail. Great video! 🥾💚
Ireland is so beautiful. If I could hug Her! ☘❤
Stunning video. Great views and good hiking weather. We camped on Tonelagee in May, and picked up the St. Kevin’s way on the way back into Glendalough it is absolutely stunning, 14 mins and 15 seconds in the video that same view we had will stay with me for a long time. The full trail looks really good.
Another great video Ellie. I have a real thing for pilgrim paths and have walked a couple. You've inspires me to do more. Beautiful, gentle introduction to this trail. Thanks for takin us along
Delighted to hear you enjoyed the video! Yes, there’s something beautiful about walking in the footsteps of others, spanning hundreds of years 👣
There are a few more pilgrim paths around Ireland for me to explore still, I’m really looking forward to seeing what each one brings ☺️

Well done Ellie great channel 👏 👍
Delightful video, very pleased to have discovered this channel. I must walk this route next spring, I think I even saw a likely camp site in this video! Subbed immediately, looking forward to more of these 😊
Ah thank you so much! Delighted you enjoyed the video. It’s a great trail, I hope you enjoy it next year! ☺️

Hi Ellie. Great video. Remember when I walked it last year. The history lesson along the way. Thank you Ellie.
And thank you for the lovely comment! ♥️☺️
Is there no skinny-dipping in Ireland? (re St Kevin's pool). I loved walking the Kerry Way, and your videos inspired that choice! such nice people everywhere, and a lovely time.
And what about the swim, a bit too cold for ya was it? 🤣😂🤣. Lovely looking trail though, out and back from your friends house would be a great run.
I honestly would have if I’d had the time - my next trip to Wicklow is in November, we’ll have to see how brave I’m feeling 🤣
And yes I agree, and out and back from the little cottage would be perfect! There’s one more trail down there that I want to do, and I think you could possibly loop together, we shall have to see 😃
🎉 👏
Beautiful hike and video 😊
Thank you ☺️
Fantastic video. Whats the name of the little cottage you stayed in ?
It’s called An Teachain Beag, they’re on instagram! I’ll add a link to the video description too ☺️
Thanks for this video. I was sorry to hear about your knee, which I hope heals soon. Is there any place to camp halfway or so along the way? Or is wild camping entirely forbidden?
Thanks so much Sean - the knee is improving! So I’m hopeful it won’t be too long a recovery 🤞
As for camping - I did see a couple of spots that looked promising. Looking at the OSI Discovery maps, you can see which areas are part of the National Park, which does allow camping if you follow their guidelines and designated areas (eg. No camping within the valley of Glendalough).
So while not straight forward, I do think it’s possible!
So, is the trail man Kevin on this trail instead of Elvis? haha My friend and I are coming over in March. We hiked the Appalachian Trail together and I tried to get her to join me on the Irish Way, but she only has 2 or 3 weeks to hike. Love to buy you a pint (Possibly at the Dying Cow, That pub was closed when I hiked the Coast to Coast trail and I swore I would come back and have a pint when it was open!) Your info about the Coast to Coast trail was invaluable when I did it a couple years back so I owe ya.
