Remember to prepare properly before heading out on any type of walk or outdoor activity. Tell people where you are going and what time you are expected back. As Wainwright says “There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing”.

Walk Details
Raad ny Foillan (The Way of the Gull) rolls off the tongue as easily as the miles roll on underfoot. It’s the Isle of Man’s superb, signposted, long distance footpath.

At almost 160 kilometres (100 miles), it offers an ideal opportunity to walk around a complete nation! It’s a wonderful opportunity for families to enjoy an active holiday outdoors together and a top location for a dog-friendly holiday. Winding its way around the coastline, you travel through a wide variety of countryside.

The Isle offers some of the best coastal walking in the British Isles – cliff footpaths, quiet sandy beaches, sweeping bays, wooded glens and farmland. From panoramic views to cosy coves, it’s the unfolding landscapes and seascapes that are so enchanting.
