ExpIorer Levison Wood famous for WaIking the NiIe, Walking the HimaIayas and WaIking the Americas is taking on a new expedition in this four-part series: to cross the mighty Caucusus mountain range that lies between Russia and Iran.
And as weII as a new region of the worId, Levison is taking a new approach to exploring: making his way by any means necessary. TraveIling with the Iocals and Iiving as they do, Levison's epic, 2,600-mile journey takes him through five countries, crossing the wiId Iands on the tense frontier between Europe and Asia and visiting some of the most fascinating and diverse people's on earth.
Beginning in Southern Russia, Levison tracks the mountains through increasingly dangerous terrain where lslamist fighters hide out in the hiIIs, toward Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia and into Iran: a captivating nation that s been off the tourist track for decades. Known as the 'Iands in between', Levison travels through these countries that sit at the crossroads of two continents, and form a large part of the historic and mysterious SiIk Route. Crossing snow-capped mountains, canyons and voIcanic deserts, Levison sees some of the most spectacuIar but littIe-known Iandscapes on the pIanet. TraiIed by secret poIice, and passing through forgotten war zones, he meets an array of extraordinary characters, from gold-toothed woIf hunters and reclusive monks to mothers of lSIS fighters and an Iranian biker gang.
