Glen Helen open again

Part of an Island glen which had closed following poor weather earlier this year is back open to the public.

Glen Helen was shut by the Manx government’s forestry division in March when heavy snow brought down many trees and branches.

The government says the clear-up operation will continue, and is expected to last until autumn.

But the lower part of the glen – including the loop to the high bridge, the wishing chair and playground – have now reopened to the public.
