El Camino del Rey - The King's Pathway - Scary Hike

submitted by silvercord

1 decade 6 years 10 months 1 week ago

El Caminito del Rey (The King's pathway) is a walkway, now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, near Álora in Málaga, Spain. The name is often shortened to El Camino del Rey.

From Wikipedia (cont):

The walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is one meter in width over a 700-meter fall, and over time it has lost its handrail. Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall. Many people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years. After four people died in two accidents in 1999 and 2000, the local government closed the entrances. However, adventurous tourists still find their way into the walkway.

No f'ing way.

Moving this video to silvercord's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 3 days.
