[@BackpackingWithJason]

Those rocks hitting together sounding like bells was wild. I’ve never seen that before.
The carved door into the mountain was really cool.
Beautiful area for hiking

[@PierreFarrugia]

Thanks buddy

[@PierreFarrugia]

Yes 100% agree Markus

I like this rough terrain because it is more challenging to walk than the easy paths. Again a nice video with interesting features on the way, especially the tomb. Regards, Ivan from Belgium.

[@johnembery7801]

This is a lovely valley, and whenever you see it it always looks different, never seen or heard the rock like a bell, that was good and like you we like to see this cave its amazing.
Thankyou Pierre. ❤🇲🇹

[@PierreFarrugia]

Thanks, I have a whole video on that cave

[@johnabela932]

A BEAUTIFUL LUSH VALLEY, MADE INTERESTING & UNIQUE BY A BELL SOUNDING ROCK, A TOMB AND A 'RIBBED' CAVE🌿💦🎄.
Pierre, I wonder whether it's called "Qirda" because of the damaging fast flowing storm water 💦 🤔. Lovely walk.
THANKS PIERRE🚶🧗‍♂️ 🎥 👏.
Cheers 👍 🇲🇹 ♥ 🇪🇺 ♥ 🇺🇦 ™

Thanks Steve agree

That's a very interesting trekking route you've made there with those special features. It's a good walk for all the family with certain attention for kids when walking. I love all that vegetation as it's so nice and even healthy. All three spots of interest are all so amazing and somehow a little strange too, but definitely worth visiting someday. Thanks so much for the vlog sharing Pierre, another good one to add to the your fantastic list of trekking locations. Well done. 👍👍

Thanks Ben, really appreciate subscribers like you. Always very kind

@@PierreFarrugia Welcome Pierre, I feel very glad when things are done good, professionally and safe. Thanks again.

The tomb of the Milorda is a beautiful reminder of an English lady who so loved this valley that she rode in it on a daily basis that her ultimate wish was to be buried there in that tomb carved out of the rock for her eternal repose

[@PierreFarrugia]

Looks like you know this valley 10/10

[@annemariefarrugia]

How long did it take you and from where is the entrance please ?

[@PierreFarrugia]

I don’t know exactly but I think 1 way maybe 1 hr, cause you have to move slow

[@sandraazzopardi5457]

@@PierreFarrugia from where is it best to start pls?

[@PierreFarrugia]

[@white_wolf79]

Hi from where you start the hike pls ?

[@PierreFarrugia]

I started the hike from where you find Ghar Tas Slaleb in Qorrmi, then I walked towards the Tomb of the English Lady and made my way up the valley. then I filmed my way back. The above can be found on Goolge Map, but if you find any problem I can send you google maps location. Hope this helps

[@white_wolf79]

@@PierreFarrugia Thank you :)

[@egrimab]

A truly beautiful valley that I happen to know very well as literally lived in a farmhouse there for 10 years, it's always been named Qirda and it must be due to the flooding valley bed watercourse that comes directly from the heights of Dingli and Siggiewi passing through Hesri and really flowing rapidly into Qirda until ultimately ending up in Qormi's previously innermost part of the grand harbour where today it's been reclaimed by the Marsa Sports complex including Golf course. People also talk about the Maltese having followed the Turks up from the harbour into the valley where the chapel and Dejma post opposite are situated and in the middle of the night, while camped in that spot, were slaughtered in their sleep by the Maltese ambush, hence the name Qirda as the Turks were literally destroyed there. The same path was infact part of he old main road from Rabat and a common area for robbers to ambush travellers on their way to and from grand harbour

[@PierreFarrugia]

Thanks very interesting

[@francescaa7093]

So interesting!

[@IarctusI]

[@egrimab]

The cave is one of the very oldest examples of early religious worship and was used by all the major faiths of the time with symbols showing this from Jewish, Muslim and also later even Christian faiths that ultimately remained before buildings started being used as religious sites later

[@PierreFarrugia]

Edward thanks for all this info

[@Courupted_Guest]

its makes a bell sound because the inside is hollow not because of the material I am going with my school there tomorow so she told us to study so i found this video

[@PierreFarrugia]

Ohhh nice , hope you share this video with my friends, thank you

[@IarctusI]

This is not the only rock which makes this sound. They are all over Malta, especially North. I think it's due to the fact they are hollow.

[@PierreFarrugia]

Yes 100% , found one in Hal Far too
