Travelling mostly on foot, and camping along the way amid some of Scotland’s most beautiful and rugged landscapes, Dougie Strang encounters a depth of meaning to the tales he tracks – one that offers a unique perspective on place, culture, land ownership and ecological stewardship, as well as insights into his own entanglement with place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDougie sets out on his walk at the beginning of October, which also marks the start of the red deer rut.
