Lough Ouler, Natural lake in County Wicklow, Ireland.
Lough Ouler sits beneath the slopes of Tonelagee Mountain at an elevation of 817 meters, forming a heart-shaped lake in the landscape.
The lake formed during the last ice age when glacial movement carved out the depression in the mountainside, creating this natural water formation.
Local hiking enthusiasts maintain several unmarked trails leading to Lough Ouler, preserving the natural state of the mountain paths.
Visitors can access the lake through two main routes: a 4-kilometer Tonelagee path or an 8-kilometer circular trail starting from Glenmacnass Waterfall.
The waters of Lough Ouler contain natural currents that create patterns on the surface, visible from the surrounding mountain viewpoints.
