Lovely video, thank you we plan to visit here

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks, there are some good walks from here

[@decoman100]

lovely video thanks

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks

[@stephenrose5611]

We are off to Wales tomorrow from southern,England, and, because of you video, we will be going to see Herbert’s Quarry on our way up to Dolgamedd in Snowdonia

[@flydriveexplore]

Looks like you are going to have a great week for weather - sunny and dry (Although Snowdonia can do anything at anytime)

[@stephenrose5611]

@@flydriveexplore Hi, I’ve just seen your reply. Yes we had great weather, a bit chilly in the evening camping but beautiful clear views on our journey. On the way up we stopped at Herbert’s Quarry for a short time and we’re going to explore a bit more on the way home. However, as you said, the weather can change, and it did! You couldn’t see anything when we went there again on the way home. 5mph driving through the clouds…Definitely worth a longer visit next time.

Thanks 👍

[@lcook0825]

Very interesting

[@flydriveexplore]

It was, I didn't know that much about the place before my visit.

[@WalesGaming86]

I was in the car park Sunday morning at sunrise, and it was probably one of the most incredible sights I've ever seen.

[@flydriveexplore]

It must be especially at dawn over the mountains on a clear day.

[@Frankie-z8h]

Lovely to see again.. thank you. Very interesting

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it

[@russdavies6091]

Great stuff.. Well just as you mentioned on another vid even us locals can over look great places like this. Thank you , Russ Caerphilly

[@flydriveexplore]

Cheers 👍

[@andycoles4588]

Great Video as always . Brilliant 👍👍 Fascinating History of this area which I had no idea of and we drove past the site on the way to Llangadog without even realising it existed. I think we were distracted by the stunning scenery. 😃 Thanks for posting 👍👍👍😃

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you enjoyed it. I didn't realise there was so much there until my visit.

[@terrycollett1461]

Very interesting as always.Lime is used a lot in farming and steel making.The name Herbert crops up quite a bit in Welsh history.Digestive biscuits,what no fish and chips.

[@flydriveexplore]

Unfortunately no chip shop available this time.

[@amymcmahonbooks9586]

I'm really enjoying these walks with you. Thanks a lot.

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you like them!

[@menfreya1591]

Just discovered your videos. Very enjoyable. Excellent quality. Looking forward to more.

[@flydriveexplore]

Grreat, thank you for watching.

[@catherinelodwick2217]

Love your videos especially this one I don’t live very for from the black mountain and we go up there very often especially on nice days for the views. Not far from those quarries are some Bronze Age grave mounds maybe you could do a video on the,

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks for watching. I did see the burial mounds marked on the map I had but just didn't have time on this visit. Will definitely be going back.

[@David_Nurse]

Another great video Marcus. Very interesting. Thank you.

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks, it was good to take a little drive for a change

[@MyKnf]

Another great video pal. Thanks for the post 👍

[@flydriveexplore]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@NatSatFat]

This is an obscure place, but i love the vid, please do some more?

[@flydriveexplore]

I was up there this morning!

[@BasicBeachCommunity1]

Great footage 👍...

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks for watching.

[@OnASeasideMission]

Sad Story about Dai Twice. The rest, beautiful. If there's one thing I love about Wales it's Bleak is Beautiful. To quote an old acquaintance, 'Magnificent Desolation'.

[@flydriveexplore]

Agree, definitely something special about those rugged open spaces.

[@DC245100]

Amazing video

[@flydriveexplore]

Cheers 👍

[@maggienificent]

Lovely video. This is an area I wanted to explore when I went to Wales. I don't know if or when I'll ever get there, but it is so nice to see this part of it.

[@flydriveexplore]

The Brecon Beacons are really interesting form villages and market towns to rugged moors and mountains. Well worth a trip and it's only a short drive from the coast.

[@barrycrump6189]

What a fascinating yet forlorn place. I will certainly be making a visit to this wonderful area - I am amazed at just how deliciously devoid of people it is - which suits me down to the ground. As far as I am concerned, Hell is other people.

[@flydriveexplore]

It was quiet but it was a weekday. Not sure how busy it gets at the weekend but if you go early it should be quiet and there's plenty of countryside to get away from anybody.

[@kurtvanlife]

Recent subscriber man love you’re stuff and you’re way of editting I’ve been in a really bad rut with my channel and editting style and it shows with my views you’ve given me some ideas on how I can improve my stuff

[@flydriveexplore]

Thanks for watching, I 'll take a look at some of your videos.

[@just-another-guy]

I live on the black mountain pass and trust me, weekends are NOT tranquil lol. I wouldn't live anywhere else though. That's for sure.

[@pauljones1350]

Travelling further now at least you are getting further afield more freedom nice drive chocolate digestives I like but troublesome they melt when warmer but ok with recent chill enjoyed a whole packet of digestives the weekend with some baby bell cheeses in a net when out in gower man can’t live on bread alone

[@flydriveexplore]

Yep, it good to travel again, although not that far. BabyBel, what about good old fashioned Dairylea triangles?

[@ronmitchell859]

Was that area ever forested?

[@flydriveexplore]

It may have been but it would have been a very long time ago. During the bronze age and into the iron age much of the area was cleared for grazing.

[@snowman3630]

THE BLACK MOUNTAIN NOT THE BLACK MOUNTAINS IS THAT WELSH 😆😉 AHHH THE OLD QUICK LIME WATCH OUT MEL😳😳 WAIT WHERE'S MEL MUHAHAHA 🤣 BEAUTIFUL SCENERY MARCUS N MAYBE MEL 😳🤣😆

[@flydriveexplore]
