31 Photos That Prove Why You Need To Go To Wicklow This Bank Holiday Weekend

Known as the Garden of Ireland, County Wicklow holds a special place in our heart..

Not only is it so easy to get to but it is also home to The Happy Pear Café and it has some of the most stunning scenery in the country. Whether you're hopping on the DART to Bray for the day, strolling through Powerscourt Gardens or hiking through Glendalough, there are breathtaking views at every turn.

Take a gander at these stunning pictures, and we challenge you to come up with a reason why you shouldn't visit Wicklow this weekend..

Because Bray on a good day is like the Costa del Sol

And Wicklow's pink skies make our hearts sing

Because nothing says majestic like the stillness of Glendalough's lakes

And nothing humbles us more than the history of the ancient towers there

Nor the height of the trees

Because of the gorgeous green hills (which even look great with a sprinkling of snow)

And the stunning views from those gorgeous hills

And because you never know who you'll meet up there

Because Wicklow Town could not be any more quaint if it tried

And you're never too far from a valley,

Or a babbling brook..

Or a waterfall for that matter!

Because of the serenity you feel in the Djouce Woods

and escaping to Brittas Bay is as good as any holiday abroad

and because even on a bad day, it's hard not to be blown away by the lakes in Wicklow

Because the sunrises in Bray are so stunning they're worth dragging yourself out of bed for

and the sun peeking through the clouds like this makes us think we've just witnessed a miracle

And with scenery like this, maybe we have...
