Situated at the northern end of Douglas promenade, this glen survived well even though it is set close town. Summerhill Glen is a web of wide footpaths leading through trees and shrubs and streams .
Hidden in its interior lie animal seats carved out of wood for children, a gnome meet and mushroom hill.
During the summer season (until the end of Oct), there is vast system of illuminations. A very popular and free evening attraction for visitors and locals alike. The lights are turned on at 6pm and off at 11pm.
Guarding the coast side entrance to the glen are two old canons, sitting where once a small island defence point would have been maintained.
Close to the town centre, Summerhill Glen is easily accessible and has nearby parking on Victoria Road.
