Wild Way of the Vikings (2018)

This nature special, narrated by Ewan McGregor, is unlike any other in that it depicts the wildlife of the North Atlantic through the eyes of the Vikings. Think herds of reindeer, Arctic foxes, seal-hunting orca and giant walruses.

Make the same voyage as the Vikings did in the year 1000 AD, from Norway to Newfoundland, and experience the incredible wildlife and natural environment they encountered along the way, from the killer whales in the North Sea to the puffins on the coast of Scotland, from the volcanoes of Iceland to the frozen wilderness of Greenland. Hundreds of years before Columbus landed in the Americas, the Vikings showed an enormous respect for nature, even as they journeyed towards new battlegrounds.

The Wall Street Journal says, “The best part of this documentary about the Vikings and the natural world are the glorious images of wildlife.”
