Snaefell is the highest mountain and the only summit higher than 2000 feet on the Isle of Man. It is said that on a clear day six kingdoms can be seen from the top (England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, the Isle of Man and the Kingdom of Heaven itself). The Snaefell Mountain Railway runs the four miles from Laxey to the summit. The summit is crowned by a cafe and several communications masts.

The A18 Snaefell Mountain Road passes over the slopes of Snaefell, and is the highest section of the Snaefell mountain course over which the Isle of Man TT Races are held.

There are mountains in Iceland called Snæfell (note the slightly different spelling), including the mountain under the famous Snæfellsjökull glacier.
