Iolo Williams explores Montgomeryshire. He looks for endangered curlews, visits rare habitats, walks ancient routes and finds wildlife along a canal.

Iolo Williams explores north Radnorshire and Montgomeryshire. Iolo begins his journey on a beautiful pasture at Tylcau Hill near Llanbister, bursting with colour from wildflowers and rare butterflies. Next stop is Dolfor near Newtown, one of the last remaining strongholds for the curlew in Wales.

Along the ancient and historic landscapes of the Kerry Ridgeway and Offa's Dyke, he discovers stunning male linnets singing on the gorse. Further north near Welshpool, Iolo finds some lovely old meadows full of colourful orchids and insects. This leg of the journey ends on the Montgomery canal which is a great place for dragonflies.
