Lough Ramor

Loch Ramor

Lough Ramor covers 7.2 km² with 26.7 km of shore in County Cavan, 500 m north of Virginia.

Getting to the water

A public road or path on the map comes within 3 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 Cavan.

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.

Parking

Lake car park is 20 m away, and the walk from it to the shore is 400 m along mapped paths. The map records nothing about a charge.

How big is Lough Ramor?

How do you get to Lough Ramor without a car?

The planner on this page works out the walk from that stop, and where no footway joins it to the water it says so rather than making a number up.

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 Q3356599.
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.
