Anns a’ phrògram-sa, tha e a’ snamh ann an abhainn a tha ruith bho dheas gu tuath tro Bhàideanach air a slighe gu uisge Spè - Abhainn Truim. Tha a chuid as motha den abhainn sèimh agus ciùin ach ann am pàitean eile far am bheil Calum a’ snàmh, tha an t-uisge air gearradh tron chloich-ghràin agus sreath de dh’easan a chruthachadh. Bidh Calum a’ leantainn turas a’ bhradain is e a’ dol suas an abhainn gu dhachaigh! Tron t-sreath, bha Calum airson a h-uile seòrsa snàimh a dhèanamh agus rinn e liosta pearsanta air diofar lochan. Tha e criochnachadh a’ snàmh air an abhainn seo suidhichte an teas mheadhan na dùthcha!

The final episode in this series which has seen Calum Maclean share 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 throughout the series, he has been determined to try swims on his personal wish-list.

One was to swim in River Truim as it flows north in Badenoch into the Spey. Most of the river is calm and flat, but in parts the water has chiselled its way through the granite resulting in a series of waterfalls. Calum swims upstream which proves challenging until he comes to Salmon’s Pool and a chance for some dynamic fun in the water. Show less
