Scottish National Trail

The summers been quite a busy one with lots of filming for the new 'Gore-Tex Scottish National Trail'.  This is a new 470 mile long distance walk from Kirk Yetholm (pretty much where I'm originally from!) in the Scottish Borders to Cape Wrath at the very top of Scotland.

Kirk Yetholm - the beginning












Traveling through some of Scotland's finest landscapes this route could become one of the most iconic long distance walking routes in the world...

Sandwood bay


























I was filming for Mountain Media who have also produced the book - Scotland End to End
















Not sure exactly when both 1 hour programmes will be broadcast but it'll probably be over the Christmas period - will update.

The trail was officially launched by the First Minister on October 30th 2012.
Watch the video of the day below.


Cape Wrath - the end!
