[@ShameerShahProject]

Hey Mark, that’s a wonderful valley. I absolutely love the little reservoir surrounded by the wooded hillsides. The trees lining up the hills do it for me lol. I could spend all day there. A refreshing swim for sure! It’s always cool when you get recognised from social media. I’ve had a few such encounters, and you end up making new friends and lovely connections 😀

[@WyeExplorer]

It sure is an awesome valley Shameer and amazing to swim with them wooded slopes. You would indeed love it here. Ah, yeah I did get recognized - it was good, and as you say the connections are lovely. Have a great week ahead. Mark

[@travel_nature_and_life]

Hi Mark , such a beautiful setting for having a swim. Linked with natural elements 👍🌿💚

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi, Gaddielle. Yes, an incredible setting especially in the pool. I'm on the look out for more natural spots to swim. All the best over there. Mark

[@asmaetravel]

Awesome ❤

[@WyeExplorer]

Many thanks. Mark

[@gerrymcveigh]

Mark, a stunning location to just sit and take it all in, never mind going for a swim - which is way cool👍 The sound of that water just oozes peace and calm. Good to see you both taking the time to feel that tingly cold water, connect with others and just be in the moment👍

[@WyeExplorer]

You're right there gerry - it's good enough without going in the pool. Being in the water mind you adds another dimension to it. It was super frigid but magical. Yeah, peaceful and a great connector with others. Thanks old mate. All the best. Mark

[@360OutdoorAdventures]

That looks a stunning walk and an amazing place to enjoy a swim. I really get that tingly feeling after a swim. It really does feel amazing, so uplifting

[@WyeExplorer]

Yeah, it's a top spot Garry - re the cold it kind of sends you into an altered state for sure. Thanks old mate. Mark

[@HikeCamp]

Looked to be a good walk and a swim...

[@WyeExplorer]

Alright there Max - the best walk and swim. Cheers bro. Mark

[@EggnogonthebogProductions]

Looked like a great place to swim for a cold refreshing experience. Glad to see you enjoying it.

[@LarryBees]

Wow Mark ! You look like a strong swimmer. Brilliant guys Beautiful surroundings .The AI cut most of the wind noise.😀🏊🏊‍♂

[@WyeExplorer]

I was county champion, British army champion and record holder and in lots of finals. Yeah, I used to swim a lot with Paul Larry. For sure awesome spot. I had to use the A.I. All the best up there. Mark.

[@WalkTalkBrew]

Awesome video Mark, looks stunning.

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Mike, thanks mate-yeah it's a great spot, which makes for a brilliant hike and swim. All the best. Mark

[@bumblejennybee88]

It must feel so exhilarating swimming and being surrounded by nature! I'd be happy just dangling my toes in! Good one, Mark! Take care, Jenny 😊

[@WyeExplorer]

It is one of the best feelings Jenny - dully immersive. Hey, dangling toes is great. Thanks Jenny. All the best. Mark

[@PinetreeLine]

Beautiful spot to swim Mark! Great outing all the way around.

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi there Doug. I trust you're well mate. Glad you liked the outing and swim bro. It was exhilarating. All the best. Mark

[@TerryMcGearyScotland]

Good morning Mark. Always a great pleasure to follow you on your outings. A lovely start to the day my friend. Take care in that cold water. Atb..Terry

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi there Terry, thanks old friend. Good to know it got the day under way nicely. Re-the cold water - you just have to prep. All the best. Mark

[@BoundlessMercyStory]

Great stuff,you have a very nice swimming technique.

[@WyeExplorer]

Thanks - it's a great area - been swimming a long time. All the best. Mark

[@NotAnotherAdventure]

Hey Mark, it's so cool to see the valley in the sun. When we were there it was just cloud and fog! Didn't realise you could swim in the reservoir, that's awesome!

[@WyeExplorer]

Alright there guys. For sure wonderful in the sun. Maybe you'll get great conditions next time. Being into open water both you have to swim in that reservoir. It's amazing. All the best. Mark

[@solitaryrambler]

That was lovely Mark. You and Andy looked like you having a great time at that reservoir, nice that it's a popular spot for people to wild swim. I must say that area of Shropshire looks really gorgeous, somewhere I must explore at some point. Hey you got recognised from KZbin by Craig, how fab was that. Good going Mark, all the best 👍

[@WyeExplorer]

Hey, there Patrick - yeah a super lovely time this one people and all - mind you me, Andy and a girl called Laura were the only ones in the water. I totally recommend the Long Mynd Patrick - you'd love it. As for being recognised, I did for once and out of the way too. It was so odd. Thanks Patrick. All the best. Mark

[@chrishomer]

Have you ever walked some of the smaller valleys and streams on the Long Mynd mate? You’d love them. Small batch is superb, callow hollow is great and much longer and quieter. Thanks for the video. Will add swimming there to my list 😃

[@WyeExplorer]

Thanks Chris, I'm going to check them areas out. They sound great. A pleasure to share this one. Take care. Mark

[@chrishomer]

@@WyeExplorer great. Ashes hollow is fantastic too

[@WyeExplorer]

@@chrishomer That's on the list Chris - super stuff mate.

[@bigdogcountry1693]

Pretty place - Good swim and sounds like nice folk on the trail mate - good stuff 🐶

[@WyeExplorer]

Hey, there mate - a superb swim - the space is magical. It seemed to attract the best people. All the best. Mark

[@SetForAdventures]

Beautiful place the long Mynd good to see you and Andy enjoying that day with a wild swim (fresh is probably an understatement) but boi I bet you felt good after mark 👌🏻 ATB Simon 🤠👍

[@WyeExplorer]

Yeah, you must know it Simon - it sure is a picture there. The pool is incredible and what with being cold a real vibe. Yep, felt mellow. Thanks, Simon. All the best. Mark

[@oliverkillian]

What a lovely place, nice to see you getting in more swims before the colder days set in :D

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Oliver, yeah a super lovely place - sets the scene for a cold swim. For sure Oct-Nov are about my limits. All the best. Mark

[@nigelharness9032]

Hi Mark. chilled day that looked, nice and relaxed and a beautiful location for a swim, never been there so thanks for showing me enjoy the weekend cheers nigel

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Nige, for sure mellow as what with mellow people all around. And the water - well nice and fresh leaving me very happy. Thanks mate - I will have a good one. You too. Mark

[@filbritfrolics9315]

lovely, I wish i can swim like that hahaha. Lovely video Mark. God bless .

[@WyeExplorer]

It was super lovely - re-the swimming. Get training. Ha ha! Many thanks. Mark

[@filbritfrolics9315]

@@WyeExplorer :-) yeah ,I will watch swimming lessons from KZbin hahaha 🤣🤣

[@WyeExplorer]

@@filbritfrolics9315 Some are very helpful although that's not where I learned to swim.

[@Kababoes]

A nice hike and a refreshing swim in a natural pool. Life is good, Mark. Love that A.I. wind removal thing. Would be great if it also could keep the wind out of my shelter 😂 Take care bro. See ya, Hans

[@WyeExplorer]

It sure was a good walk in and swim Hans. No complaints about the pool or setting. Just right as was the A.I filter. It would be good if there was an .A.I filter for wind and hey rain. We'd be well sorted. Thanks old friend. Take care. Mark

[@saunteringsapsfords]

Hey Mark,we live in the wonderful shire of Herefordshire, but I also love Shropshire, especially the Shropshire hills,another green county, great wild swim my friend.

[@WyeExplorer]

Absolutely - I agree it's a lovely county. Yeah, the swim was as refreshing as the county.

[@Roolooth]

That looks like such a nice spot to have a swim Mark, not too many people there that day either. The woodland on the lower slopes looks very inviting for a bit of an explore too.

[@WyeExplorer]

Super nice Roo what with the wooded slopes. It was fresh mind you. All the best. Mark

[@lifesahobby]

That moment when you looked at the water was kinda fun. I could imagine one part of you was saying runaway!! Fair play being able to lash out a smile in the intermission 😂. If that was me I would not have had that smile on my face . You even looked exactly the same after you got out . That's great meeting Craig . You'll need to work on a disguise ❤ Take care . Owen

[@WyeExplorer]

Well, I looked again bro and I stuck my thumb and said, 'lovely.' No, I have no probs with the water - it makes me smile. Re-Craig - it was fantastic to see him out backpacking. Many thanks. Mark

[@LukeGoesOutdoors]

You know all the spots mate get them in before the cold lol God bless

[@WyeExplorer]

Hiya Luke, yeah it's getting fresh out there and in the water. Many thanks. Peace.

[@FIVE-FOOTLyth]

What a lovely space Mark. Having just returned from a swim and paying £7 (first time with a wetsuit for months!), it makes me wish there were more places like this close to where I live! Very mellow - and you had great company by the sound of it too. Peace 😄 Sue

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Sue, yeah a super lovely space. I'm sure there are loads up your neck of the woods - this one is an hour north from us. All the best out there. Mark

[@Adventures_with_Sog]

Ey up me duck. Wonderful. I've been looking at going wild swimming myself, this looks like a nice chilled area. Everyone keeps telling me how beneficial it is. Cheers for this one fella, reckon I'll check it out out but probably next year now when it's a tad warmer. Ay a good'un me owd 🙂👍

[@WyeExplorer]

I hope you manage to wild swim and check this spot out. You won't be disappointed. Cheers there. Mark

[@AdventuresThings]

What a beautiful walk and great place for a dip. Can you jump off that tower thing?

[@WyeExplorer]

Yeah, Mike it's one of the prettiest pools to swim in. I think people have jumped off it. Thanks mate. Mark

[@OSMOneStepMore]

You need to have the courage to enter the water because I don't believe the water temperature was higher than 18°C. Brrrrrr! 🥶🥶 But brave move from you. 👍👍

[@WyeExplorer]

Well, I just know the cold dissolves in a few minutes guys. But yeah super frigid. All the best. Mark

[@stephensmith4480]

Nice little location that Mark, pity about the wind. That water looks really clear mate, wonder why they stopped using it as a supply Reservoir?

[@WyeExplorer]

Hi Steve. Yeah, an amazing spot. Re-the water it was full of lovely weed. They stopped using it because the mill closed. As for the wind - had to use that A.I. All the best bro. Mark

[@DesmondsDonders]

Been a long time since I was there. In Boots DMS and running LOL

[@WyeExplorer]

Hey, I can see that Dave - a regular beasting on the hills there. Mark
