Ballysaggart Lough

Loch Bhaile an tSagairt

Ballysaggart Lough covers 19 ha with 2.2 km of shore, 20.7 km south-west of Emyvale.

Getting to the water

A public road or path on the map comes within 4 m of the shore, along about 700 m of it, and there is one more stretch like it elsewhere on the shore. That is what the map contains. It is not a statement that the public may walk there, because OpenStreetMap does not record permission, and nobody has checked this lake against its owner.

How journey planning works
Destination, access and nearby stops

Ballysaggart Lough is in Emyvale, County Monaghan. Routes here end at the stretch of shore a public way reaches, which this site measured on the ground. A car park is recorded 145 m from the water, about 2 minutes on foot.

Emyvale is the nearest settlement, 20.7 km south-west of the lake. Arriving in Emyvale is not arriving at the water, so the journeys below are worked out to the water and say so when they cannot reach it.

What this site measured
The area and the shore are worked out from that outline. The stretches of shore a way reaches, the walk in from a car park and every distance on this page are worked out here, on this site’s own graph of the OpenStreetMap ways, last built on 2026-09-20. These are this site’s calculations, not the map’s, and a mistake in them is a mistake here.
