About

The Lough Trail in Cork offers a serene escape just minutes from the city center. This freshwater lake serves as both a tranquil bird sanctuary and a lively hub for family-friendly activities. Visitors can enjoy leisurely walks along well-kept paths or try their hand at fishing. Perfect for a relaxing afternoon, the trail features benches for taking in the view of swans, geese, and cormorants.
