Newcastle
Newcastle is situated on a link road that runs along the East Coast from Bray to Wicklow Town. The village is very close to the beach, which is excellent for walking and shore fishing.
An Caislean Nua takes its name from the Castle (now a ruin), built by the Norman’s on an earlier Irish fortification in the territory of the O’ Byrne’s. Constructed in the period between 1177 and 1184 by Hugh de Lacy then governor of Ireland under Henry 11, the Castle called Newcastle Mackynegan, became a major stronghold in the outer fortifications of the Pale.

🎥 WATCH: Video Guide: Wicklow Way Section Two - Knockree to Roundwood has been released!
🥾 This video will show you what to expect as you continue along the Wicklow Way, on the second section of the route.
Enjoy truly magnificent views on this 20km section, the first being the glimpse you'll get of Ireland's highest waterfall on the Powerscourt Estate, as you climb high through Crone Woods.
Cast your eyes over the spectacular scenery towards the Irish Sea, with Djouce Mountain looming to the right as you skirt below the summit. Another treat is just around the corner - Lough Tay. More views into Lough Dan await you before you reach the end of Section Two.
