In the northwestern foothills of the Wicklow Mountains, the Blessington Lakes make up an active reservoir used for water supply and to generate electricity. Also called Poulaphouca Reservoir, it’s the largest man-made body of water in Ireland, and was created in 1940 when the River Liffey was dammed. You can appreciate the landscapes without stepping out of the car, as the Lake Drive has amazing perspectives of the lake and the Wicklow Mountains, while passing through the lovely villages of Ballyknockan, Valleymount and Lacken. On foot you can journey along the waterside greenway, while the southeast shore has a boat rental station if you fancy landing one of the monster pikes living in the water.

Beautiful lakes with boats available to hire or a green way walk or cycle around.
