Powerscourt Waterfall is the waterfall that keeps on giving. A significant volume of rain has fallen over Wicklow today.. this is the result. Likely to flow over in this manner all weekend.
A gentle reminder - the Waterfall area of the Estate has reopened. After recent heavy rainfall, it is a spectacular sight. A lovely place to walk off the Xmas dinner and seasonal indulgences. Pick up a coffee at the Bug Buffet and go explore
Powerscourt Estate Closure. In the interest of public safety and the absolute requirement for social distancing, we have decided to close the Estate - House, Gardens, River Walk and Waterfall, until further notice.
