Raad ny Foillan (The Way of the Gull) is a 98-mile footpath around the
Isle of Man. The route description is set out as a circuit and split
into stages, with the longest walk being 15.5 miles and the shortest
being 7 miles.
Any fast walkers may wish to complete two stages per day,
while those progressing at a more leisurely pace may decide to amble
along and take in the splendid attractions along the way. There are two
other walks described in this guidebook.
The 23 mile Millennium Way,
which follows the ancient route of the kings, from Ramsey to Castletown,
and the 14 mile Herring Way, which takes a more traditional route from
Peel to Castletown. Both these routes cross the hills of the island's
interior and can be combined to make an interesting longer walk.
