Glenmacnass Waterfall, Mountain waterfall in County Wicklow, Ireland.
The Glenmacnass Waterfall drops 80 meters in three distinct cascades over grey granite bedrock in the Wicklow Mountains National Park.
The Old Military Road, constructed in the early 1800s, passes by the waterfall and served as a strategic route through the Wicklow Mountains.
The name Glenmacnass derives from Irish words meaning 'the glen of the hollow of the waterfall', reflecting the local landscape features.
A parking area at the top of the hill accommodates multiple vehicles, with a short walking distance required to view the waterfall.
The waterfall marks the geological boundary where grey porphyritic granite meets dark schist rock, creating a natural division in the landscape.
