About

Lough Nacung Upper (Irish: Loch na Cuinge Uachtarach, meaning 'upper narrowness lake' or 'upper lake of the isthmus'), also known as Upper Lough Nacung, is a lake in Gweedore, a district in the north-west of County Donegal, Ireland. It connects Lough Dunlewey to Lough Nacung Lower, which drains into the Clady River.

Lough Nacung is a Special Area of Conservation.

The name is derived from the Irish cuing, meaning "lake of the isthmus" or "narrow neck of land (as between two lakes)".
