Episode 4 of 6

Duration: 30 minutes

Julia Bradbury has her backpack on again and is out exploring the great outdoors. In this series, all of Julia's walks follow the old tracks, the overgrown cuttings and the ancient viaducts of Britain's lost rail empire.

Railway Walks visits disused lines across England, Scotland and Wales. Through stunning landscapes and urban backstreets, each contrasting walk has a unique story to tell, offering Julia a window into industrial Britain and how the rise and fall of the railways has altered lives and localities across the country.

Julia Bradbury's first walking foray into Scotland has a very distinct flavour to it: whisky! The Speyside Way is one of Scotland's great walking routes, and between the villages of Craigellachie and Ballindaloch it follows the route of the railway that once served a remote area and a world famous drinks industry.
