Getting to Kilmacurragh
Last updated: May 7, 2013
The gardens are located south of Dublin in east Wicklow, just 3km from the N11 road, between Wicklow town and Rathdrum.
If driving South from Dublin on the N11, you need to turn right at the Beehive pub, which
lies c.3 km after the second junction to Rathnew/Wicklow, this is also c.1km South of where the
dual carriageway turns to single carriageway.
Keep to the main route, and you will find the entrance on your left after 5 km.
If driving FROM the south on the N11, take the first left after Lil Doyles, a bit less than a kilometre further on, at The Tap
pub. Drive c. 2 1/2 km to a T-junction and turn left. The arboretum is 300m on your left.
If driving from Rathdrum, leave the village on the R752, signposted as Deputys' Pass. After 4km turn right and after a
further 2.5km you will come to a T-junction. Turn right and the arboretum is on your left after c. 1km.
