This week's walk of the week is the Lough Navar Lakes walk, which takes in a number of pretty loughs that are typical for this part of the area, and that take in some great local forestry scenery.

Overview

The Lough Navar Lakes walk, which encapsulates all four lakes, starts from Meenameen Lough. This walk skirts the western shore line of Lough Meenameen before disappearing deep into the heart of the forest and passing by Lough Navar and Lough Naman, before branching off to loop the shore line of Lough Achork. (Part of the Marble Arch Caves Global Geopark.)

The information on this walking route has been provided by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council and also features on a series of walking cards which have been developed to promote walking opportunities, trails and routes within the Council district.
