Manx National Glens is a collective term for a series of glens in the Isle of Man. The island country is renowned for its natural beauty and its "pocket sized" scenic natural glens.〔(Official Official Website )〕 All of these glens are to be found in wooded, steep river cuttings but the Isle of Man has more than 120 glens (in Manx, ''Glion'' or ''Glan''), which will no doubt increase as research continues. ==Glens== * Ballaglass Glen * Ballure Walk * Bishopscourt Glen * Bradda Glen and Headland * Colby Glen * Dhoon Glen * Elfin Glen & Claughbane Woods * Glen Helen * Glen Maye * Glen Mooar * Glen Wyllin * Groudle Glen * Laxey Glen * Lhergy Frissel * Molly Quirk's Glen & Bibaloe Walk * Port Soderick * Silverdale Glen By no means all glens are wooded and ''Glen Crammag'' running northwards from the B10 road into Sulby Reservoir at Crammag gives evidence of this. To date, no name was found for the neighbour glen of Glen Crammag which runs from the well known Brandywell Corner down into Sulby Reservoir. This is also treeless. The names of some well known glens are strangely not known to many Manx residents. So the glen where the world famous ''Fairy Bridge'' is located on the main A5 road to Isle of Man Airport and the island's south. This is ''Ballalonna Glen'' which is named after the closest farmhouse. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Manx National Glens」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
