Small lake in the middle of the karst landscape in the Burren National Park. Since it is seasonal, the water level can sometimes be higher and sometimes lower.

Lough Gealáin is a turlough (seasonal lake). In its case, while it is present year-round, it sometimes can expand to flood the early part of the Blue, Green, and Red trails. As long as you have waterproof ankle-high boots, you should be able to continue to the mountain. Perch live in the turlough, but fishing is not permitted.
