The view from the summit is magnificent, I witnessed a phenomenon at 10 a.m. where we could see the arrival of fog which covered the entire surrounding area and we could no longer distinguish the fog from the sky. This lasted about ten minutes

The highest peak in the Man region, offers a magnificent and unique view of the city and its surroundings. At the top of this mountain is the RTI antenna. Access is via difficult paths but passable by 4x4 vehicle. There is potential to install infrastructure and attract tourists while respecting the fauna and flora.
