A series following Calum Maclean as he shares his passion for swimming in remote lochs and rivers! There is nothing that Calum loves better than finding far-flung locations for outdoor swimming and he has made a personal wish-list of places he has always wanted to visit and swim in. Calum has chosen 10 of his favourite places throughout Scotland, most of which are not well known and difficult to access without strenuous endeavours. As he states himself: 'I love to swim outdoors alone with no living person to be seen'.
In this episode he attempts to swim to Fingalβs Cave on the isle of Staffa. Renowned for its strange echo, it inspired Mendelssohn to compose his Hebrides Overture. Calum swims in the waters around the cave which are challenging but a test he very much enjoys!
