Snaefell

Description
-
The only true mountain on the Island, clearing the minimum qualifying height of 2,000 feet by a mere 36 feet. The Norse called it snow mountain. From the summit, on a clear day, you can see England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales simultaneously. The old saying goes that you can see seven kingdoms from Snaefell: Mann itself, the four surrounding countries, Heaven, and the Kingdom of Manannan. Snaefell receives seventy-five inches of rain in an average year, nearly twice what falls on most of lowland England.
