This 7.2km looped walk is well worth the trek to Ireland’s oldest glacial lake right here in Co. Waterford. Its views from the top are amazing plus the walk itself is thoroughly enjoyable and promises to give your legs a proper workout. Wear decent shoes and the advice is to walk clockwise…walk starts and ends at Kilcooney Woods.
Grand sized car park, recently resurfaced, some picnic tables too.

This is the starting point of the hike to Lough Coumshingaun. Plenty of parking place.

Free parking but can get very busy. On weekends plan to be there before 9 as spaces fill up. There are newly installed bollards on the road to stop illegal parking.

Great experience, amazing natural beauty but it's quite a walk up the mountain, definitely not for unfit people.
