Welcome to the Letterboxing pages.
This new section is intended to act a central source of information about letterboxing here on the Isle of Man. The resources can be used to find out more about the basics of Letterboxing, specific information about letterboxing on the Isle of Man, details about events connected with Manx Letterboxing. You can even track your own letterboxing activity and view detailed information about the 70-odd letterboxes here on the island.
A brand new forum has been created to enable the letterboxing community to share their experiences. Topics can be about any subject. This forum will be heavily moderated by appointed persons to ensure that posts do not give too much information about the locations away. Please feel free to check out the forums right away.
After careful checking, it seem apparent this box had gone missing and now a replacement box has gone out in the same location. Happy Searching for you all!!
This box has now been replaced with a metallic ammunition tin. It has been repositioned at ground level to hopefully help prevent flooding in the future.
Perhaps quite a few have searched this area in vain hoping to find this box for some time now. Sadly the original is believed to be missing, but do not worry - a long awaited replacement has now been placed out in a similar location, happy searching!!
Creg-y-Cowin, on the Eastern slopes of the East Baldwin valley, is now home to the latest addition to the 'Ten Peaks Letterboxes'. This small box marking the summit of this rise rests not far from Windy Corner, nestled amongst the rocky outcrop. This completes a collection of the chosen 25 Manx Peaks, which have the unique Ten Peaks handstamps located on them.
To keep up with the vastly increased tally of boxes, a 2nd edition of the guidebook has just been published, twelve years on from when it all began. This revised guidebook is available from most bookshops for just £5.00.
