Getting There & Around

Visitors can access Wicklow through the Dublin Airport or the two ferry ports in Dún Laoghaire and Rosslare. From the airport, passengers can take buses or shuttle services to the capital's central station, which has connecting buses or trains to the county. Similarly, visitors from the ports can take a train or bus going to the area.

The Irish Rail trains stop at major towns within the county. Several tourists rent minibuses or cars to explore the area leisurely.
