Almost surrounded by the Blue Stack Mountains, tranquil Lough Eske ("Lake of the Fish") is a scenic spot perfect for walking, cycling or fishing. It's a popular angling center – the season runs from May to September – and there's a purpose-built angling center on the shore where you can buy permits and hire boats.
