Dunlewey Lough (official name: Loch Dhún Lúiche)[1] is a lake in Gweedore, County Donegal, Ireland. It gets its name from the area in which it is situated, Dunlewey. It sits under the tallest peak in Co. Donegal, Mount Errigal. It is also unique in that it has a crannóg, something that is rarely seen in Ireland today.
The shores of the lake is home to a popular outdoor activities centre which offers boats trips on the lake.[2]
