Gougane Barra

Gougane Barra

macroom, Ballingeary ,
Nestled in the Derrynesaggart Mountains is the romantic lake of Gougane Barra, the source of the river lee. It is one mile long and about ¼ mile broad, bounded on all sides, except the east by precipitous mountains. Down the precipices wind numerous streams, which, after heavy rains, become foaming cataracts, “with a roaring noise like thunder”.See JJ Callanan.
