Here's an excerpt from woman.el:

                  ;; Parse the file -- if no MANPATH data ignore it:
                  (with-temp-buffer
                    (insert-file-contents file)
                    (while (re-search-forward
                            "^[ \t]*\\(MANDATORY_\\)?MANPATH[ \t]+\\(\\S-+\\)"
                            nil t)
                      (setq manpath (cons (match-string 2) manpath)))
                    manpath)

If so, that directory name is available in Emacs Lisp via the data-directory

variable.
