Travelling on foot, by bike, by pack-raft and with his beloved campervan, his journey takes him over 200 miles through some of our most impressive wild places. Along the way, he meets an artist, a storyteller and a ghillie. And most surprisingly of all he discovers how our ancestors created their music.

Season

Episode 1

Air date: 2018-12-17

Cameron starts on the very edge of Scotland, the Mull of Kintyre, before heading up the long and winding road made famous by Paul McCartney. He boards a restored fishing vessel for a trip on that feat of engineering, the Crinan Canal, and explores the ancient monuments around Kilmartin. He finishes this first programme quite literally on the waters of Loch Awe.

Episode 2

Air date: 2018-12-18

In the second part of his journey up Scotland's Atlantic Way, Cameron McNeish celebrates what he says is our 'world-class environment'. From peaceful Glen Orchy he heads over the wild, yet beautiful wastelands of the Rannoch Moor. After exploring the hills above Kinlochleven, he continues up the secluded west side of Loch Linnhe before following the sun to his ultimate destination at Mallaig. Travelling on foot, by bike and packraft, Cameron joins a military historian, an author and an expert on Gaelic culture. And during his 200-mile journey, he meets people whose lives are dominated by our great outdoors.
