Roadside parking in Peel (SC 2406 8396). Good track all the way up. Pillar sits off to the NE of the tower and hill summit with extensive views, particularly good over Peel. Centre cap missing, no plug; sight holes not checked... could barely keep my feet with strength of wind, Storm Barra in full swing.

Parked in Peel then walked up well-trodden paths to trig and tower summit. Far reaching views for a hill of this size, especially to the west, you could easily see Slieve Donard 48 miles away not to mention Scotland and the English Lakes. Perfectly clear and sunny.

Lovely walk up from mapped track to East. Attempted short cut on return (getting dark) - there is a likely looking path south but it soon disappears and the vegetation is awful. Stick to mapped paths

vgc, no cap or plug. On a knoll a little way below the summit, doubtless situated for the view down onto Peel. Fine views. From NNE, bagged the SB first; car park at harbour, lovely walk on good path. Summit tower is impressive, surrounded by several vaguely trig-like stone pillars.

Visited this on a coastal hike from Port Erin to Peel. You can see the tower on Corrins Hill for much of the walk and when you finally get there you're rewarded with a splendid view of Peel and beyond. Such a pretty city. The trig point is located visibly perhaps 20 or 30 yards from the tower itself, between the tower and Peel. Unless you're a beginner like me, don't confuse it with the weird pillars with balls on (!) surrounding the tower. If anyone can shed light on these, I'd be interested. Worth visiting time and again for the view.

Walked up from Peel harbour on a gloriously sunny day. Excellent views to Peel, and all along the west coast of the island. Ireland visible to the west, and of course the ever-present Snaefell to the east. Have to agree with MAC.HAWK - this was a gem. The trigs stands some distance away from the summit, on a small top to the northeast.

What can I say, in an island of fantastic places this is a fantastic place. Done on a Port Erin to Peel coastal hike - a good up and down hike - nice view from the trig but hiking a little further north gives a wonderful view over the castle and town. No cars, on foot. The photos are from a more recent visit on 28/09/2006 - this time an easy-peasy from Peel. No cars, the bus & on foot!
