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. Is it possible to get a taxi from Sligo town to the Glencar lake on a Sunday or is it possible to walk there from Sligo? Thanks in advance!

A nice place to visit however, I think it is too far to walk. Perhaps if you ask at a local hotel or at the Bus Eireann Office, they may know of some local transport. Its around 15/20 minutes drive from Sligo, and alongside a beautiful lake.

We drove from Sligo to Glencar, but rome2rio online for the route Sligo to Glencar-Lough seems to indicate that the taxi fare is about $21-$26 one way with a couple of different taxi services. You might try calling one of the taxi services suggested on rome2rio for that route. Alternatively there are some tours that go from Sligo to surrounding sites, including Glencar. Glencar Lough and Waterfalls is beautiful!
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.
