    Road cycling

    A freshwater fishing lake, Lough Acoose is home to the endangered European Eel. The views from the roads lining the banks of the lough are beautiful. With the backdrop of the mountains, you could be anywhere.

    Cycling

    The road hugs the shore of Lough Acoose on its north-western edge. You will enjoy stunning views of water and mountains in a breath of calmness.

    Hiking

    The lake is really beautiful, but the B&B of the same name was a complete letdown.
    After a telephone booking directly with the operator and a further telephone confirmation two days before arrival, we were told after 20km of hiking in the rain that everything was full and we could walk 4km to the climbers Inn on the narrow and busy main road. No sorry, no offers of help... Very frustrating.
