The Most Underrated Part of Wales | Mid-Wales Travel Guide

[@robrees8207]

As a tour guide "Exploring Mid Wales ", I'm delighted that you've come here. So many people pass straight through to the coast, Snowdonia or the Beacons. Great to see you highlighting some of our many hidden gems.

This part of Wales, especially the Elan Valley are very special to me because I used to visit with my family at least once every year since I was young. So I'm glad that I can bring some more attention to this lesser known but beautiful part of Wales! Thanks for watching!

Such a beautiful part of Wales ❤

[@AlexTravels1]

The lesser known parts usually are!!

I appreciate seeing all the videos on this channel on Wales, as it is my home country It’s a joy to see other people coming over to visit.

[@WelshRaptor367]

Agreed as another welshman

[@AlexTravels1]

Glad you like them! We love it there, can't get enough of Wales!

Elan Valley is one of our favourites, we visit when we stay at the in-laws. I also cycle from Llandrindod Wells around the lakes. Stunning!

[@AlexTravels1]

Sounds great! I lost count how many times I visited Elan Valley and Llandrindod wells when I was younger, still can't get enough of it!

Fantastic Alex - I enjoyed that. The Elan and the Claerwen are favorites of mine. I understand how you feel about the latter. Mind you the Elan is a great little river - see 'Wild Elan Way' on my channel if you want to know what the source is like. So, good to see you on Llandegley Rocks. That's what the Bonk is called. I've just been up there too. I was remembering my dear twin brother - so yeah a specil hill for you and for me. Many thanks - a great trip. Mark

Thanks for watching, Mark! I never knew the real name of Llandegley Rocks but I've honestly lost count of how many times I climbed it (must be at least 30 times). It's a beautiful spot. I've checked out your video of the Wild Elan Way, great to get a closer look at some unique spots that I've always driven past but never seen properly!

[@WyeExplorer]

@@AlexTravels1 A pleasure Alex. Awesome mate - sounds like iLlandegley Rocks is firmly planted in your heart too. Yeah, I see your comment on the Elan - many thanks. Have a great week ahead.

What a lovely part of Wales, looks so peaceful. Visited the elan valley years ago and remember I did love it

[@AlexTravels1]

It really is!

[@Dunkelzeitgeist]

Love the hill scenes! The bonk! Great stuff

[@AlexTravels1]

Glad you enjoyed it! The nicknames that my granddad comes up with for hills are always creative that's for sure! Thanks for watching

Super!❤

[@AlexTravels1]

Thank you! 😃

[@MrVeryfrost]

Beautiful video. I would suggest you visit Hafod Estate and Devil's Bridge, too.

[@AlexTravels1]

Thank you! We have actually visited Devil's Bridge on that same trip. It's in another video on the channel! We'll have to put Hafod Estate on our list for when we visit next! 😄

Such a beautiful area

[@AlexTravels1]

It really is! Thanks for watching

[@WelshRaptor367]

That dam looks like the one in star wars andor

[@AlexTravels1]

Yes, looks very similar, but I think they filmed up in Scotland for that one!

[@WelshRaptor367]

@AlexTravels1 ah yes I searched it turns out it is in Scotland. Although I noticed you visited a hut on the Pembrokeshire coast. You'll know what I'm talking about. It was used for some scenes in his dark materials.

20MPH - never mind - head to Cornwall instead.
