Dingle Glen
About this place
Dingle Glen (Irish: An Fhothair) is a steep-sided and V-shaped valley "gash", or glen, extending for 550-metres through the bedrock of the lowlands of the Dublin Mountains, located between Carrickmines and Kilternan. In an ecological impact assessment for a proposed development nearby, Dingle Glen was categorised as "a secluded mature broadleaf woodland, mixed with rocky outcrops, within a glacier meltwater channel, thus providing a diversity of habitats within a small undisturbed area".
