Historically significant site that is worth exploring in its own right. The ruins of the church and the abbey were fun to explore. The view is wonderful! We had a clear day and could see the Hill of Tara, Bru Na Boinne, and the Wicklow Mountains.

The Hill of Slane is very central to Slane village, drive up a steep hill to the carpark and the rest is a short walk up a steep hill. There is information about how St Patrick lit the first Easter bomb fire here and then a church and priory were built and the ruins are lovely to visit and the view is fantastic. We also visited the Littlewood forest up the road which was a nice 2.6km walk and Georges Patisserie nearby, highly recommended

Good for kids and a historic and religious site for Irish Catholics. The Hill of Slane is the alleged site that St Patrick began evangelizing in Ireland. There remains the ruins of a church and home for the monks that once ran a monastery there. You can climb all over the college (monk castle) up to the top. There are signs warning that thieves are active in the area but we didn’t see any robbers on our visit. Parking lot and gates. Dog friendly.

We’re lucky we have a car and we are doing well muddling along (between the opposite side of the road to usual and the quirky signs). Many things are closed in January but the tourist office in Slane was open. The delightful woman there gave us detailed information about the area (and warned us most things like Slane Castle and the local coffee place were closed) and directions to get up the hill to the Hill of Slane. The view from there is breathtaking. The light when we were there today was inspiring; I could imagine St. Patrick lighting the pascal fire a top the hill. The remaining rocks and headstones don’t seem to mind the intrusion and some locals throwing balls for their enthusiastic dogs was a fun addition. I could have stayed there all morning. Well worth the visit.

We easily walked to the top from the village center. We were told that the road was very steep, but we had no difficulty, even in the hot weather.
One reaches a parking lot with a turn gate where you enter the field that leads up to the cemetery. The cemetery also had a turnstile gate for entry. It is still an active cemetery, so please respect any visitors who are there to tend the graves of loved ones.
The views on the day we were there were outstanding, as the skies were exceptionally clear. We were alone to enjoy the vistas until someone came to tend a grave. Then, a tour bus showed up with a large group, but we had spent enough time enjoying the views.
There is no charge to enjoy these phenomenal views.

A very short drive from Slane, and conveniently for those with less mobility, there’s a car park very close by. You still have to walk across grass to the top, but it’s a relatively easy walk. Really lovely views for miles and miles - right down to Wicklow and up towards Down. (I think!)

This place is another wonderful place to wander and absorb history. Abbey and church ruins, with accompanying cemetery, on a picturesque hill with a great view of the surrounding countryside. We were there by ourselves so it was even better to wander alone and not have to deal with others. It’s definitely worth the short drive!

Walk across a field to the ruins on the top of the hill. There is an incline but not too steep. Visit at dusk to see the ruins lit up with blue spot light. The view is amazing from the top. We think that we could see Newgrange in the distance.

Non si può pensare di visitare la cittadina di Slane senza visitare la Hill of Slane e l'abbazia che ospita. Noi abbiamo avuto la fortuna di farlo con un amico Irlandese che vive in zona e ci ha raccontato un po' anche della storia del posto, decisamente interessante. E' un'attività che non richiede molto tempo, ma all'interno di una visita all'area o all'interno di road trip, vale certamente una tappa.

Enjoyed a first visit to the Hill of Slane in a long, long time today. It's as beautiful and peaceful as I remember with mesmerising views of the surrounding hills and valleys.
It's an ancient religious site dating from the 5th century when St Patrick lit the fire here to rival that of King Laoighre who had his pagan fire on the Hill of Tara some 15km away.
5th century yes but the current church ruin dates from the 15th and there's an enchanting college beside it that was run by the fathers in ancient days.
Decent sized car park and a few display boards to aid your visit Free to enter. Beautiful, spiritual place. Well worth your time.

Do you know local volunteers give very interesting free tours on Saturdays and Sundays starting at 2pm?
And they do it for free.

How long do you think this attraction would take to see? 2 adults only.
كُتب بتاريخ 8 أبريل 2017
You could walk from the car park up the hill and back again in an hour but to see all the 'sights' you should allow another hour to do it justice.

What is the admission for this site and how long does it take to get to the Hills of Tara from here? Is it better to view the Hills of Slane or the hills of Tara first when coming from Tullynally Castle Gardens? Thank you in advance.
كُتب بتاريخ 7 مارس 2016
It's free (as is Tara). From Tara to Slane is about 20mins. Tullynallen is quite a bit further away and the route is along narrow roads. So the route is:
Tullynallen ->90 mins-> Tara -> 20mins -> Slane

How is the best way from Dublin for a family of four to get to the Hill of Slane? Rent a car? Public transportation?
كُتب بتاريخ 15 مارس 2015
There is a very regular bus service from Dublin to Slane. Once in the village of Slane it's about 1 1/2 mile walk to the top of the hill. I think you should hire a car and check out some of the other sites in the area eg Bru na Boinne and Slane Castle
