Downhill Highs

Documentary that follows mountain biker Sean Green as he reaches the final stages of an eight-year challenge to take his bike up - and down - all 282 of Scotland鈥檚 highest mountains.

Eight years ago, mountain biker Sean Green set himself an immense challenge - to take his bike up and down all of Scotland鈥檚 highest mountains, the Munros. This documentary follows Sean as he reaches the final stages of his epic project.

Sean has loved bikes and Scotland鈥檚 hills from a young age, and one day he decided to combine the two by taking his bike to the top of all 282 Munros in Scotland. Munros are Scottish mountains with a height of over 3,000 feet, many with difficult terrain and dangerous conditions. It's no mean feat, especially when there鈥檚 the Scottish weather to contend with, and the logistics of travelling to some of the most remote areas in the country while also working full-time and being with his family. It might have taken a little longer than he first expected, but Sean has never given up on his dream.

With Sean nearing the end of the challenge, we follow him as he tackles some of Scotland鈥檚 most remote Munros in Fisherfield in the north west Highlands, and two mountains in the iconic Cuillin ridge on the Isle of Skye. The documentary shows what one man鈥檚 determination, skill, patience and audacity can achieve.
