Starting at the end of Ramsey Prom, head up Ballure Glen to Ballure Reservoir and alongside the plantation.
After a few hundred metres leave Rhown Road, and head straight up to the summit of North Barrule.
Once at the summit, follow the stunning ridge to the end, and the summit of Clagh Ouyr. Take in the views of Snaefell, and then turn around and retrace your steps back along the ridge.
To mix it up on the way back, head around the other side of Ballure Plantation and then down Elfin Glen through Claughbane plantation before making your way through Ramsey back to the start.
This trail includes the peaks North Barrule and Clagh Ouyr.
