Fancy a little walk?!

Just had to share this with you! Some brave person has filmed himself walking El Camino del Rey in El Chorro, Andalucia, Spain, so you don't have to! This is just the sort of thing my hubby loves!

Now I've been to the start of this path, and it was bad enough getting there - you have to walk along a railway bridge, and through a tunnel timing it carefully with the passing trains!



I'd rather be on a horse at full gallop on the beach to be honest!

That was awesome. I just hope the via ferrata is more secure than the path!

That made my palms sweat!
All the broken bits!

Oh. My. God. Why? Why? WHY?

That to me is the stuff of nightmares. Horrifying! How that guy walked it (never mind filming it at the same time) I'll never know. Brave, brave soul!

Too high up!

I only managed to watch half of that before succumbing to nausea. How could anyone think that was fun?

Terrifying isn't it! Even one of our climber friends said he wouldn't go near it! Hubby, of course, thinks it would be great fun.

Apparently it is now closed to the public for repairs (long overdue!). Built back in the 1920s, it was built to allow the king of Spain to see the power station and dam etc., being constructed. Brave king is all I can say - even if it was brand new - still too narrow and too high up for me I'm afraid!!!!
