The picturesque village of Enniskerry is located 4 km east of The Wicklow Way. Although its proximity to Dublin has made it a much sought-after out of town residential location, the heart of the village retains its elegant Victorian feeling.
Its most distinctive feature is the clock tower dating from 1843, erected as a memorial to the Wingfield family then owners of the nearby Powerscourt Estate. Powerscourt House and Gardens, located at the southern end of the village, is a magnificent 18th century property. It now incorporates a range of specialty shops as well as a restaurant, golf course and formal gardens.
The village is served by Dublin Bus Nos. 44/C (Dublin city centre) and 185 (Bray DART Station).
