Slieau Freoaghane 488m, Isle of Man (Marilyn). A last little foray into the Isle of Man Hills to pick up the last coastal trig pointed Marilyn namely Slieau Freoaghane. A tidy size at 488m and a lovely walk on the western side of the Man overlooking nearby Snaefall on one side and the sea on the other. So a mini little adventure comes to an end with five Marilyns done including Snaefell which at 621m is also a Peakbagger world country high point. Parking Big car park at start point. Route: Road and good tracks and trails in the main. A bit of rough bracken between Sartfell and Slieau is the worst bit of the route. Otherwise there are no undue difficulties at all if you follow the gpx trail. Route Statistics: 12.5kms with 600m of ascent done in 3 hours flat.

Bradda Hill 234m, Port Erin, Isle of Man (Marilyn). Another fantastic weather day at Port Erin in the the southern Man area hiking Bradda Hill. A wonderful coastal walk full of spring colour, sea views, a look at Milners Tower and then the cairned summit of Bradda Hill. Stunning stunning day with lots of ups and downs but with wonderful views all round. Parking: Plenty of free parking in the sea front. Route: Easy enough route on good tracks and trails. No difficulty through out so just follow the gpx track. Route Statistics: 10kms with 500m of height gain done in three hours flat.

Cronk Ney Arrey La, 437m (Trig Point). A cloudier day than normal but anything dry is good. A moderate walk up South Barrule which at 483m is a nice little Marilyn in the southern central part of the Island. Nice views and a good leg stretch. Followed up with a second hike to do the trig point on Cronk Ny Arrey Laa and a quick visit to Peel Castle. Nice day out with some atmospheric photos. Parking: There is parking on a bad corner at the start point. There is a small road going off the main road. Room for a couple of cars. Route: Straight up and down route on well trodden footpaths. Follow the gpx trail. Route Statistics: 2ks, 100m height gain done in 22mins.

South Barrule 483m, Isle of Man (Marilyn). A cloudier day than normal but anything dry is good. A moderate walk up South Barrule which at 483m is a nice little Marilyn in the southern central part of the Island. Nice views and a good leg stretch. Followed up with a second hike to do the trig point on Cronk Ny Arrey Laa and a quick visit to Peel Castle. Nice day out with some atmospheric photos. Parking: Huge car park at the coffee cottage cafe/adventure centre at the start point. Route: I followed an ‘Outdooractive’ route on navigate for the first time. Follow the gpx track through the forest and up the hill and you won’t go far wrong. It’s all on good tracks or trails. After the nice trig pointed summit of Barrule there is a good trail down the other side but I decided to also take in the Barrule Beg just north of the quarry. There was a bit of off piste grass work here but it was not too bad. Skirt the edge of the quarry on a track on the way down but half way down, as your looking back up on the quarry, I turned right through a wooden gate. My route through here was a bit rough, not that bad but I would suggest following the track all the way down to the road and walk along the road back to the start point. Route Statistics: South Barrule: 9ks, 320m height gain done in 2hrs 15min. Cronk Laa: 2ks, 100m height gain done in 22mins.

Snaefell 621m, Isle of Man, UK. World Country HP. After a two year absence due to covid and the obvious lack of travel it’s good to good to get out to the Isle of Man to do Snaefell. At 621m it’s not only an isolated 600m peak but listed as a world country high point on Peakbagger. This makes it no 25/256 for me. Not the hardest of hikes and a bit novel having a coffee shop at the top and to see tourists getting off the electric tram. Hey ho but a great hike on a stunning day with beautiful views and other interesting things to see on route. Route Statistics: 14km, 676m of ascent in a carb fuelled 5hrs 45min with two Mochas, a Meringue slice and a cream and jam scone!

Unfortunately didn't get views on the ascent but as I dropped out the clouds the views over the coast were stunning. There is a large cairn and a trig point at the summit.

Probably the highest hill on the island from which you can see breathtaking views.
