Wilderness Walks with Ray Mears

“I have explored some of the wildest places on earth - but my favourite is still Britain.” - Ray Mears

This new ITV factual series follows bushcraft expert Ray Mears as he journeys through some of Britain's most spectacular and diverse landscapes.

In Wilderness Walks, Ray takes viewers on a trail of discovery along rivers, through forests and across mountains as he searches for some of our greatest natural treasures. Ray travels from dawn to dusk to explore each unique habitat and the incredible wildlife that exists there.

In each episode, Ray visits a different place, each with its own character.

Part 5: Borrowdale

The bushcraft expert's latest stop on his trek across diverse and spectacular landscapes is Borrowdale in the Lake District. Here, he uses the River Derwent as his guide to the Borrowdale valley, home to ancient forests and some very special wildlife including peregrine falcons. Ray goes with National Park officer Peter Barron to view a site used by the birds, and learns about the theft of eggs from nests, and how locals have intervened to protect them.
