Lough Nacung Upper (Irish: Loch na Cuinge Uachtarach, meaning "upper narrowness lake' or 'upper lake of the isthmus"),[2] also known as Upper Lough Nacung, is a lake in Gweedore, a district in the north-west of County Donegal, Ireland.[3][4] It connects Lough Dunlewey to Lough Nacung Lower, which drains into the Clady River.[3][5] Lough Nacung is a Special Area of Conservation.[6]
The name is derived from the Irish cuing, meaning "lake of the isthmus" or "narrow neck of land (as between two lakes)".[2][4][7]
