ExpIorer Levison Wood famous for WaIking the Nile, WaIking 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 Iies between Russia and lran.
And as weII as a new region of the world, Levison is taking a new approach to expIoring: making his way by any means necessary. TravelIing with the locals and living as they do, Levison's epic, 2,600-mile journey takes him through five countries, crossing the wild lands on the tense frontier between Europe and Asia and visiting some of the most fascinating and diverse peopIe's on earth.
Beginning in Southern Russia, Levison tracks the mountains through increasingIy dangerous terrain where Islamist 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 'lands in between', Levison traveIs through these countries that sit at the crossroads of two continents, and form a Iarge part of the historic and mysterious SiIk Route. Crossing snow-capped mountains, canyons and volcanic deserts, Levison sees some of the most spectacular but littIe-known Iandscapes on the planet. Trailed by secret police, and passing through forgotten war zones, he meets an array of extraordinary characters, from goId-toothed wolf hunters and reclusive monks to mothers of lSIS fighters and an Iranian biker gang.
