InchagoillFrom Oughterard a boat can be taken to the picturesque island of Inchagoill, with the remains of two churches (both National Monuments). The smaller of the two dates from the fifth century, the other (12th C.; restored) is a good example of Irish Romanesque architecture.

The narrow road which runs north along the shore of the lough is a dead end: to drive round the lake it is necessary to continue on the N59.
