Djouce Mountain

Item detail

Description

At a height of 725 metres above sea level, the summit of Djouce is the most accessible of the Wicklow Mountains.

Djouce is a short but steep climb from the Wicklow Way trail.  There are no marked trails from the Wicklow Way to the summit of Djouce.  Please follow and stay on the existing tracks to prevent erosion.

Djouce is very exposed to weather elements and proper gear is highly recommended.

Djouce is roughly 4km from the Wicklow Way junction at Peer Gates or slightly more than 6km from Crone Woods car park.
