As someone who visits waterfalls a lot I was most shocked to find dogs are not allowed on this outdoor walk. Certainly finding Ireland not to be dog friendly. DisappointedFull review by Adele L
Hi there! I was thinking about going to the Glencar lake and waterfalls on a Sunday and I would like to know how to get there from Sligo town. I don't drive or have a car.

Hi I'm just wondering do you have to pay to see the waterfall?
A:
No, not when we were there, and from the look of it, not at other times either. There is a small building by the car park, that has toilets and seems to have a small office. But I don't see …
No, not when we were there, and from the look of it, not at other times either. There is a small building by the car park, that has toilets and seems to have a small office. But I don't see how they would enforce paying first, as access to the waterfall footpath is on the other side of the road, and no gates or such.
