    Glad to see Toby make it on this one, he should be on Britains got talent, walking through the lift up sty easy part, leaping big puddle, fell in, just carried on, over the high walk and through the metal grid, and you could be paid for guide on these walks, now you have walked the walk, have fun always enjoyable to watch

    Camped there quite a few times with Dai kelly camp n wild with the dragon and Darren. It is indeed, a spectacular spot, and the glacial llyn is beautiful too, not too many people there either; although, when we first camped there.. 20-odd off road motorbikers were there as it's a huge off road scramble area.

    I love the quiet central Welsh mountains region. So much quieter than most areas. Although I never follow tracks or trails and always trek into wild overgrown locations where nobody goes.
    I regularly eat raw garlic 🧄 and this keeps the ticks, midges and mosquito 🦟 at bay.
    Nice to see you doing a back flip across the stream fully clothed! 😂

I haven't been out hiking and camping since before lockdowns during which I lost my Mum. Your videos have given me that need to get back out there. Mountains and high altitude Forrest's are like a drug to me, I love them. Surrey hills and the Downs the rest of this year to get back in shape, 2025 I'm coming to Wales. My Dads side of the family is from Tylorstown in the Rhondda valley, I think I'll start there and head North. Fantastic videos mate, so happy I found your channel.

    Lol... I had completely forgotten about that crossing the river clip you showed at the beginning - got so engrossed in the scenery... laughed my head off! Luckily it was on your way back. Those midgies at the end.. arrrgh. Beautiful scenery and thoroughly enjoyed the video. I walked Pumlumon from the Farmers CP at Eisteddfa Curig (£5 a day).. walked up the George Borrow Trail (I know it starts in a different place but can be accessed from the cp and then came back down the Bonnington Trail after going to see the Wye Valley Soure - its disappointing Ryan.. not marked unless I missed it - I scrambled down looking for a marker or something but not visible to me? Seeing this video I am even more keen to get up there and explore once I am able. atb Al

      Thanks, Alan. I'm glad I didn't scramble down trying to find it then; I'll give it another bash on my next visit. I hope you'll be able to get back out and about soon so you can get up there. ATB, Ryan.

      We have something in common Alan - we've both enjoyed Pumlumon. But I have to disagree - the beauty of the Wye source is that it is so unassuming - it's merely seepage and no bigger than a bowler hat as Robert Gibbings said. It's not like the Severn source with signs and walkways.

      Thank you, Eileen, it's nice to hear you're enjoying the videos. We had a great time on this camp. The soundtrack is a track off UA-cam Studio, called Woodshedder by Quincas Moreira (link below). ATB, Ryan.

    Da iawn, iawn. Pity about the midges. They do seem to be getting worse annually and biting almost as hard as the Scottish ones. There are considerable chunks of Wales where few ever venture and careful planning can see explorers like yourself see few or no one in days.................. And thanks for the honesty - many UA-camrs like to present 'clinical' videos and would have deleted the tumble in the stream as if it never happened.

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  2 місяці тому

      Thanks for the kind words. Yes, those and ticks are becoming a lot more of a problem these days. Mid Wales is so vast and a great place to explore. Thank you for watching. ATB, Ryan.

    Can I ask you. Which are the best maps to use for paths and tracks avoiding roads. Iam just starting out after watching you. I don't have a clue where to start. Cheers. Colin

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  4 місяці тому

      I'll be honest, Colin, I've been using Ordnance Survey Maps all of my life so I can't comment on any of the other apps out there. Personally, I think Ordnance Survey is the best map you could use. You can either buy a paper map for the area you're walking in, or download the OS maps app. It's an annual subscription of £36.99 and covers the whole of the UK. You can plot your routes on there and download them before heading out. I don't know if you've done map reading before, but it will be necessary if you're using OS maps. You could maybe look at a map reading course or there's a lot of tutorials on UA-cam that you could watch. You could download the OS app and use the free version to see how you get along with it before paying for a subscription. Hope this helps, mate.
      Here's a link for the app: shop.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/maps/os-maps-subscriptions/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwkJm0BhBxEiwAwT1AXKsizLdzauU_JtsTMkV4pYRX0SKQMyWu7uJyHdqU5UXCmErPGM_zDhoCkpIQAvD_BwE

    • @wildaboutwales
      @wildaboutwales  13 днів тому

      Thanks, Craig, glad you enjoyed. I parked at Hafren Forest car park and left my car there for two nights and had no problems. If you wanted to do the Sir Caradog Jones trail, you can park on a small lay-by, near the start. If you have a 4x4 you can drive straight to Llyn Llygad Rheudol. Here's a link for the 5 trails...have a good one!
