Great view over Dublin and the Wicklow Mountains. The climb is a tough one, with varied terrain and plenty of switchbacks. Totally worth it for the view though!

Three Rock Mountain

Highlight • Summit

Three Rock Mountain is part of a group of hills in the Dublin Mountains. Towering at 1,475 feet (444 m), it has wonderful views over the surrounding landscapes. Three groups of granite rocks sit at the summit, from which the mountain takes its name.

Forestry plantations of larch, pine and spruce blanket the mountain's slopes. At the top, you'll also spot lots of masts and towers that broadcast to Dublin.
