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 6: Isle of Skye

Ray Mears is on the Isle of Skye, off the west coast of Scotland, a place you can tell he loves by the wide grin on his face. And it is a majestic landscape with its mist-covered crags, heather-clad moors and shimmering lochs. Before he even steps off the ferry he spots Britain’s largest bird of prey, the sea eagle, engaged in aerial combat with a seagull: “That’s as good as anything you’d see on the Serengeti,” he enthuses. Then, after a brief diversion examining the carnivorous wild plants that grow here, the binoculars are back to help him spot the extremely rare golden eagles. They of course need no help with their eyesight as they can spot a mouse from almost a mile away.
