Geocache Description:


Lough Ross Amenity Area

There are picnic tables and a basket ball court located here. There are public toilets but I have not seen them open in several visits. There is a public slipway however jet skis may not be used on the lough. There are ample parking spaces along the shore. It is a popular fishing venue.

The Cache

Since this is close to the Amenity area you may be tempted to run up the lane and try and grab it without a kayak. Dont. Please respect land owner rights as this lane is private and in this case it means nobody as well as no cars.

There is no pen so bring your own. If you do not have a pen take a photo of the logbook to prove your find. Visits which indicate the log was not signed and offer no other proof of the visit will be deleted.

The cache is little bigger than a nano and is tucked away. You will do well to get it without getting wet. It was placed using a kayak and swimming in the lough is not encouraged. It would be a long swim too. As with any water based activity there are risks so safety first.

If using a boat for this or other caches on the lough be aware that the lough is quite shallow round the shore and the islands and even using a kayak I grounded some distance from land on many occasions.

Kayak/Boat Hire

I dont know of any boat or kayak rental business that services the Lough.
