How far is it from Glendalough, Ireland to Kilkenny and how would you drive it?

Question

This is not the location in Waterford that comes up on Google maps.

The Glendalough we are talking about is the one south of Roundwood, close to the Wicklow Mountains.

Answer 1

NOT far at all!  Get on the N76.  

Perhaps go to Google.ca, type in Klikenny, Ireland and it'll show you where it is.  You'll see the little marker and you can hit the 'search nearby' tab, then type in Glendalough.  It is located south of Kilkenny so you may have to zoom out, depending on what it shows you on the map!

Hope that helps!

Cheers
