About this show

Mountain Goats is a hugely energetic studio sitcom set around the antics of a ragtag group of Mountain Rescue volunteers. It celebrates the greatest part of Scotland, the Highlands, with proper kilt-wearing maniacs fighting disaster on a weekly basis against the stunning backdrop of the Glencoe hills. Brimming with life and filmed in the full beam colour of the countryside, Mountain Goats offers up ideal escapism to all those with a head for heights and a spirit of adventure. When our heroes aren't out rescuing people, or being rescued themselves, they spend their time in 'The Old Goat' pub - a place of great warmth and camaraderie, where people come in for a quick pint and never want to leave.
