Cabins in Lough Neagh guide
When to go
Spring and summer are the best months for wildflower and wildlife viewing, while winter can provide opportunities for observing wintering visiting birds. Summer will bring the warmest temperatures and longest daylight hours for boating and cycling. Biting midges can be a nuisance around the lake in summer months. Bank holidays, the week around 12 July, and times of local festivals and events are busy. Winter temperatures are cooler and many attractions and activities close from around the end of October until Easter.
Know before you go
- Always bring warm layers and a waterproof outer layer on outings as weather can change at short notice.
- Check weather forecasts before taking part in watersports and wear personal buoyancy.
- The Loughshore Trail has some sections on main roads and through towns with traffic.
- Don’t leave valuables unattended in campsites or vehicles.
