Bayr ny Skeddan

Long distance footpath on the Isle of Man


Bayr ny Skeddan (Manx Gaelic for "Herring Road") is a walking route in the Isle of Man between the towns of Castletown (Balley Chashtal) and Peel (Purt ny h-Inshey).[1] It is about 14 miles (23 km) long, and reaches a maximum height of about 150 metres (490 ft) at the Round Table below the South Barrule.

From Castletown, about the first 3 miles (5 km) of the route coincides with that of the Millennium Way, in a northerly direction through Ballasalla and Silverdale Glen. At GR274725 the route turns northwest in the direction of the South Barrule, reaching the Round Table after about another 3 miles (5 km). The path continues north downhill through Glen Mooar to the hamlet of Glenmaye and along the cliff top to Peel.
