Ben Fogle: New Lives In The Wild

S11E05 Oregon

Ben travels to the remote wilderness of Oregon to meet a former photographer living in seclusion, surviving on foraged weeds for sustenance. During his stay, Ben takes part in a traditional sweat lodge ceremony, drawing from Native American spiritual practices. The intense heat and steam push him to reflect deeply, stripping away layers of modern distraction. In that primal space, surrounded by silence and smoke, Ben confronts his own vulnerabilities, finding a raw connection to the land and a quiet, profound renewal.
