Season:

1. Legends of the West

Paul Murton explores the wilds of Loch Etive, from the spectacular tidal race of the Falls of Lora, where kayakers revel in the overfalls and ride a three-metre standing wave, to high-altitude camping on a hill opposite Buchaille Etive More, watching the sunset, and lights up the hundreds of lochans across Rannoch Moor.

2. Shelter from the Storm

Paul travels from Loch Gairloch to Loch Maree, a grand tour that includes: meeting the king and queen of Islonia, matching a medieval feat of archery, diving on a wartime wreck in Loch Ewe, and finding himself short-changed at the money tree on an island in Loch Maree.

3. Taming the Wild

Paul Murton begins his Grand Tour with a chilly swim across Loch Ba, high on Rannoch Moor, struggles against the elements while trainspotting and meets some veteran Tunnel Tigers - men who tunnelled deep inside the Grampians, diverting water to hydroelectric schemes.
