Walking in the Isle of Man

Put your best foot forward

Explore unspoilt beaches, rare flora and fauna and countryside that has remained unchanged since the Celts and Vikings. Take a deep breath of fresh air and experience the dramatic scenery of this fascinating island by foot. You can walk for miles on the Isle of Man without bumping into another sole. Walking truly is a means of escaping and getting back to the grass roots of nature itself.More information about wildlife and the Manx countryside can be found on the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries & Forestry website www.gov.im/daff
