| The River Cong (Irish: Abhainn Chonga) is a short river of moderate flow in Ireland, primarily in County Mayo but also touching County Galway. The river rises by the village of Cong, County Mayo. It is formed from underground outflows from Lough Mask, a little over four miles (6.4 km) to the north, that escape through fissures in the cavernous limestone of the district, surfacing near the village. The river is only about one mile (1.6 km) long but some 100 yards (91 m) wide in places. It is divided by an island at one point. It flows strongly past Ashford Castle and into Lough Corrib. |
