Wicklow Mountains National Park Boundary Map
Wicklow Mountains National Park is situated just south of Dublin. Covering circa.22,000 hectares, The Park has the distinction of being the largest of Ireland’s six National Parks. It is also the only one located in the east of the country.The National Park extends over much of the Wicklow mountains. Upland blanket bog and heath cover the upland slopes and rounded peaks. The wide open vistas are interrupted only by forestry plantations and narrow winding mountain roads. Fast-flowing streams descend into the deep lakes of the wooded valleys and continue their course into the surrounding lowlands.

This boundary map was produced using parcel data sourced from the Land Registry dataset from Property Registration Authority of Ireland and the OSI PRIME 2 dataset.
The polygon geometry was generalised to 50M to produce this map using the Simplify Polygon toolset (using Wang-Muller algorithm method) in ArcGIS Pro 2.8 software.
