Itinerary description
Day 6 - 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.
