Beautiful place for a walk. Thanks so much for sharing Kev.
@@shanesworkshop922 cheers Shane. I can't believe I've never walked it before. Glad I finally have.
Never really appreciated the South Wales valleys, but the drone footage and the views walking down the ridgeway really stirred something. Great footage.
@@garymartin557 cheers Gary. I was surprised at how nice this location was. If that was in the Lake District it'd be very well visited.
Keep up the different walks and reviews Kev always relaxing
Nice to see other areas for people to try
Regards Jeff
@@jeffprice2210 thanks Jeff. Yes, it's fun looking at the OS map locally and finding new places to explore. Hopefully I'm in the rhythm of two videos a week now and I'll keep that up for the rest of the year.
Another delightful walk Kev and looked plenty of opportunities for a wild camp. well done! Did the rocking stone actually rock when you stood on it? The drone adds a lot to these videos. A walking festival in the South Wales Valleys could be a potential lucrative benefit for the area. Keep up the good work. Regards Keith
@@welshrambler1893 thanks Keith. The rock is very stable, thankfully. A walking festival is not a bad idea.
Loved that Kev. Really did!
Loving the additive of the done footage.
Soo jealous though as I’d love to find that.
I know you said it’ll be on your site but do you by any chance know the ‘what 3 words’ of the rocking stone or where you parked? Would love to go there!
Great job as usual 👍
@@PhilipOlsen11 I'll have to look it up and get back to you. Loads of places to park so I'll get that sorted soon for you.
Love to do what you do .got all the camping gear ,just always bit worried about being spotted and moved on
@@owendavies3267 I've never had that happen around South Wales. Lots of quiet spots around.
very Nice Kev, I have no idea where this rock is (perhaps you will tell me exactly) it reminds me of a rock called Pulpit Rock, (I was told that 60 years ago?) a teacher of mine drew it with Adolf Hitler on top and brought it to school , very impressive, just had to find it, and I did, it is up the Bwlch y Clawdd Pass, if you look on the OS map for there, you will see name Craig y Geifr, its somewhere around there, its been over 50 years so cannot remember, it is as impressive as the one you shown.
@@NatSatFat nice, I'll have a look for that. I'll update my website soon and will post the route which will show you exactly where this rock is.
The structure is part of a tram way that goes down to an old winding wheel on the left as you faced the valley. I think it was some kind of pulley thing.?
@@thevalleywalker not sure. Definitely a decent sized structure and just a remnant of industry that reminds you of the past.
Hello Kev.
Really enjoyed that one👍
I'm the same as you I've driving passed many times and know of it and always look up to the rocking stone but never been there it's on my list.
Thanks for that.
I'm picking up a decent tent Thursday, mine is rubbish.
Picking it £50 off Gumtree.
I'm planning on doing it in the winter, plus I got wet wild camping Thursday😁
It's a single skin tent.
@@JamieHarding5 what did you pick up on Gumtree? I haven't found much lately on the sales sites!
@@TheWalkingKev
Vango Pro 300 something like that
£50. I'm happy because I've got no gear.
I watch another video of yours tonight in your orange vango £25 ⛺️ bargain😁🫡
@@JamieHarding5 I'll be selling a lot of tents shortly. I've got a couple going cheap no doubt. I'm going to sell the Orange Vango as well!
@@TheWalkingKev
I need another one and a few things.
I'd buy some things of you👍
I don't think you live miles away.
I live in Tir-y-berth opposite Denmans, near aldi, just up from Ystrad Mynach.
I need a tent for my dad.
@@JamieHarding5 very close by then. If you're on Instagram then you can message me there. I'll list what I'm selling!
