Doo Lough

Dúloch

Doo Lough covers 1.5 km² with 8.5 km of shore in County Mayo, 8.2 km south-east of Leenaun.

Getting to the water

A public road or path on the map comes within 6 m of the shore, along about 1.9 km of it, and there are 3 more stretches 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

Doo Lough is in Leenaun, County Galway. Routes here end at the stretch of shore a public way reaches, which this site measured on the ground. A car park is recorded 568 m from the water, about 7 minutes on foot.

Leenaun is the nearest settlement, 8.2 km south-east of the lake. Arriving in Leenaun is not arriving at the water, so the journeys below are worked out to the water and say so when they cannot reach it.

Where this comes from

The lake itself
The outline, the name and the identifiers are OpenStreetMap records. Correct it there Figures marked Wikidata come from Q3036874.
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.
