Alternative loop walk from Mount Anglesby to Bay Lough.
moderate
Distance 8.9 km
This is an 8.75km alternative loop walk from Mount Anglesby to Bay Lough, which has a waymarked trail you can take to the lough, returning via Loughglenbridge. This version climbs to the 'lookout' point at the far side of the lake, then walks along the ridge behind this point and takes a well walked track along the wall at the forest break crossing two glens before returning down to a forest track through the forest.
Don't take this route if it has been raining heavily as it will be almost impossible to cross one or both of the glens. The ground underfoot will also be very boggy later in the track.
