Trekking The Victoria lines Malta

#Malta #history #war  ‪@ZOLEOLife‬  
Today I will cover the Victoria Lines, which are a continuous infantry wall which connects together three forts (at Bingemma, Mosta and Madliena), an entrenchment at Dwejra and a number of other gun batteries and ancillary military facilities to form a single line of defence. This is some twelve kilometers long and it follows the contour of the Great Fault, a geological feature which cuts across Malta from coast to coast; specifically from Fomm ir-Rih in the west to Madliena in the east. Forming part of the same defensive system are also an additional fort (at Pembroke) and extensive military barracks (at Mtarfa and Pembroke).
To make this video I had to cover around 21km of trekking.
