Lough Mask
Loch Measca
Lough Mask covers 84 km² with 182.5 km of shore in County Mayo, 1.8 km south of Clonbur.
A public road or path on the map comes within 28 m of the shore, along about 750 m 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.

Where it is
The pin sits from the main access point on the shore, and every distance on this page is measured from that same point. The other pins are the nearest lakes in County Mayo.
Parking, viewpoints and stops
Everything here is measured from the main access point on the shore. A viewpoint is a place that looks at the lake, which is not the same as a place on it.
An unnamed car park is 800 m away, and the walk from it to the shore is 1.5 km along mapped paths. The map records nothing about a charge.

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 Q1768048.
- 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.
