Powerscourt House, Gardens, and Waterfall
One of the grandest estates and gardens in Ireland, Powerscourt is one of the main reasons that people head to Enniskerry, but just one among many. Within the shadow of famous Sugar Loaf Mountain, Enniskerry remains one of the prettiest villages in Ireland. It's built around a sloping central triangular square with a backdrop of the wooded Wicklow Mountains. That noted, Enniskerry is the gateway to get to Powerscourt.
