Lough NeaghAccording to legend, Lough Neagh was created by mythical warrior Finn McCool who scooped out the lough basin to throw at a retreating foe, thus forming the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles. Just a few minutes drive from the historic town of Lurgan, it is now one of Northern Ireland's most popular attractions with an abundance of exciting activities. The Lough Neagh Discovery Centre is the ideal place to begin your exploration of Lough Neagh.
