Mohona Lough

Mohona Lough covers 2 ha with 490 m of shore in County Cork, 1.7 km north of Dunmanway.

Getting to the water

A public road or path on the map comes within 26 m of the shore, along about 150 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.

No openly licensed photograph of Mohona Lough was found. Rather than show a picture of somewhere else, this page shows none.

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 Cork.

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

An unnamed car park is 1.1 km away, and the walk from it to the shore is 1.3 km along mapped paths. The map records it as free.

About these directions

Public transport times come from National Transport Authority. Timetables cover 2026-09-18 to 2027-09-19. These are scheduled services; check with the operator for cancellations and changes before travelling.

Walking and driving times are estimates. A town search starts at its centre; choose your location or a point on the map for a more precise starting point. Eircode search is not available.

How journey planning works
Destination, access and nearby stops

Mohona Lough is in Dunmanway, County Cork. Routes here end at the stretch of shore a public way reaches, which this site measured on the ground. A car park is recorded 1306 m from the water, about 16 minutes on foot.

Dunmanway is the nearest settlement, 1.7 km north of the lake. Arriving in Dunmanway 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, 2 of them merged here into one lake. Correct it there
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.
