Picturesque little lake at the foot of a rock face. A nice place to stop and enjoy the view or even take a dip in the refreshing water.

Here is a great viewpoint of the strikingly green fairy pool called Lochan Uaine.

Use the steps to access the water or simply admire it from above. It's a great dipping opportunity if you fancy a swim.

This was a nice trip. After you leave the main raod at Neathybridge it gets a bit boggy for a mile or so. was very wet on my trip. Couple of small streams to cross. on a fair day this would be great. No really steap climbs.
