The Isle of Man contains 12 peaks which stand at over 1,500 ft. All of these except for South Barrule (which is found in the south) are found in the central range which spans the region between the central valley and the flat fertile northern plain. Despite the fact that none of these peaks are relatively high, they appear quite prominent and impressive due to their proximity to the sea.
Whilst many of these peaks are rugged in nature they are not steep enough to provide many opportunities for technical climbing (which can be found in abundance around the coast). There are opportunities for scrambling in some areas including the northern slopes of north Barrule, around the Sloc, the southern slopes of Greba mountain. These provide a fantastic training ground for the higher steeper mountains in places such as Snowdonia or the Highlands of Scotland, they are also far less crowded than some of Britain’s more popular hill destinations yet just as impressive in character. All of these peaks can be attained by a rough hill walk.
