A special edition of the Adventure Show showcasing the spectacular landscapes and varied lifestyles of the far north of Scotland, in the company of Britain's well-known hillwalker Cameron McNeish. Starting on the iconic mountain of Suilven in Assynt, Cameron maps out a new trail through some of the most dramatic scenery in Western Europe. The route finishes 70 miles away on what has been called the queen of Scottish mountains, Ben Loyal.

On the way, Cameron meets the people who live here - from young crofters determined to continue the traditional way of life to a former hairdresser who now farms some of the best oysters in Britain.
