ahead of you to your right. Take a right at the crossroads and the
entrance to the field is at the bottom of the hill.
Lake O'Flynn
... is a lovely spot for fishing or just for a picnic by the water's
edge.
Brown trout is the main type of fish in the Lake. There is easy
access to the lake on the southern shore with a boat harbour , pier
and a car park and picnic area. The Shannon
Fishery Board website has details of the fishing.

you will go under a railway bridge - the entrance to the lake is
just after the bridge on your left.
