Best Hikes to Hidden Waterfall Above Glencar Lough

Tips

  • I parked up at the side of Glencar Lough and walked up the steep forest path and then on to The Dooneens Walk which is definitely worth doing. On the way back I noticed a trail on the map leading across the river opposite the first notice board (as you come through the gates from the forest trail). This led to a really stunning waterfall which in my opinion is far more beautiful than the well known and visited Glencar Waterfall downstream. Definitely worth checking out but be extremely careful. Sure footedness is required. The photos I've taken really do not do this place justice. Getting a good photo of this waterfall will mean getting into some pretty precarious positions.

  • Nicely tucked away a bit off the beaten path this waterfall allows an escape from the sometimes a bit overcrowded lower one.
