Beautiful Rhodendron garden. Though there were no flowers in August but the view was breathtaking from up the trail. Worth visiting. However the path is not for people with mobility issues.
Beautiful place! Also since we had no idea that to see rhododendrons need to turn right, we turned left and by stairs got up on the hill! View in sunny day is awesome
Worth a hike to the top of the hill for great views of Howth and Sutton. Walk to the Deer Park GC and head to the right, past the pro shop. You'll find a path leading to the Gardens. Take the trail to the left to hike up to the top of the hill. Didn't see much in the way of Rhododendrons or gardens, but there were many trails to walk and great views from the top.
