Lough Boora Parklands

Loch an Dochais, meaning ‘Lake of Hope’, was developed as a small angling lake with facilities for people with disabilities. The lake  is just under a hectare in size and has a maximum depth of two metres.

With all the appearance of a natural lake, Loch an Dochais hosts the All Ireland Competition for disabled anglers each year. An exceptional coarse fishing lake, it has proven popular and is an excellent site for families and for teaching children to fish.

On site picnic and parking facilities are provided which also serve the Tumduff walk. Loch an Dochais is the first lake you meet to the right (west) of the Cycle Path road when travelling south from the R357 towards Kilcormac.
