mountain rescue

For the unprepared the Wicklow Mountains can be hazardous. Should you decide to venture off the roads and tracks, please remeber the following
1. Never venture into the hills alone unless you are an experienced hill-walker.
2. Leave details with someone of your route and expected time of return.
3. Bring a good map with you and know how to use it.
4. Wear strong boots with good ankle support and bring adequate rainwear.
5. Please stay clear of all cliffs, crags and waterfalls. They are extremely dangerous and there have been a number of fatal accidents in the area.
