Originally constructed in the early 19th century to provide the British military with access to the rugged uplands, the Wicklow Military Road is more than a route through what was once considered ‘bandit country.’ It is a gateway to understanding the complex tapestry of history that has unfolded in this remarkable region. As you travel along this iconic pathway, you will uncover stories of rebellion and resilience, of communities once isolated by the very landscapes that now connect them.
