Weir's Way

Tom Weir (1914-2006) was a wee fellow in a knitted tam, Fair Isle sweater and walking boots — and one of Scotland's greatest National Treasures. With great enthusiasm for hill walking and the stunning scenery of the Highlands, Tom travelled all over his country, fairly skipping and scampering his way on foot. Broadcast over two decades, Weir's Way brought Tom's passion for exploring the landscape and the history of Scotland to his countrymen. Whether tracing Bonnie Prince Charlie's heroic flight through wild loch and mountain terrain or chatting with the locals in a scenic seaside village, Tom Weir's priceless legacy is forever preserved in each episode of Weir's Way.
