Itinerary

For those seeking a truly unique hiking adventure, the "Isle of Man Coastal Path: The Way of The Seagull" offers a nine-day, self-guided trek circumnavigating the enchanting Isle of Man. Experienced travelers and seniors with a taste for moderate activity will relish this 161 km journey—known as the Raad ny Foillan—that traces dramatic cliff tops, tranquil glens, and historic villages. Highlights include the rugged Calf of Man, the Irish-tinged city of Peel, and the industrial marvels of Laxey’s Victorian mining heritage. The walk’s USP is its near-continuous coastline, promising spectacular seascapes and a sense of timeless tradition. With comfortable accommodations and logistical support, this trekking tour is perfect for those wanting to explore history, nature, and local culture at their own pace.

day 1Arrive Douglas

Make your own way to Douglas via Ronaldsway Airport (IOM), or at Douglas Sea Terminal by ferry from the UK or Ireland. Douglas is the largest town on the Isle of Man and has a resplendent two mile arcing promenade and beachfront. In high summer there is a horse drawn tram that you can take right along the sea front. This has been operating since 1876. There is also the Manx Museum where you can learn about Manx history and myths. Otherwise, just spend time strolling around this very Victorian town with its quaint harbour.

Accommodation

We use a number of small hotels on, or just off, the seafront in Douglas with ensuite rooms.

Excellent based on 836 customer reviews from

Dudley

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.
