Scariest pathway in the world.

Mountain Trail in Spain

The entrances for this trail are closed but not policed. It was built in the 1920's for hydro workers. There is no rail but there is a chain to hold onto but it doesn't hold much weight and several people have fallen to their deaths. This is an amazing walk! This should have you on the edge of your seat possibly feeling slightly dizzy. It's 6 minutes long and should be watched till the very end.

To intensify the experience, click on the full screen button ...It's enough to make you nauseous especially when you consider that it was filmed by someone who made the hike carrying a video camera while he did it.

It was built to transport materials from one place to another? That must of been even more scary carrying heavy equipement.

Does anyone remember that thread from a while back about the crazy tea hut in China or something? I feel like that could rival this.

The parts where he looked though the holes in the path that you see down like 500 feet to a river i liteeraly was thinkning I am going to witness this mans death on POV cam. at the end when he just casually jumped that drop i was like NO DONT DO IT YOUR GONNA DIE. But also i bet he was roped to the side of the mountain no way he free climbed that.

Cool stuff.

I felt compelled to go and find these things so here are the google maps links:

El Camino del Rey, Spain:

Mt Huashan, China:

[link]http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=mt+huashan+china&aq=&sll=48.139126,11.580186&sspn=0.415136,1.352692&ie=UTF8&hq=mt+huashan+china&hnear=&radius=15000&ll=34.485454,110.082595&spn=0.002021,0.005284&t=h&z=18[/link]



Probably those links didn't work because I don't know how to do that shat on here.

ive done this, so sketchy, but you are tied to the wall with rope and harness, so not that bad as it looks.

I guess it just depends how comfortable you are in exposed situations...You should look up "angels landing" in Zion National park

Went there last summer. It was so insane. You walk along a rock ridge about 6 feet high with 600 foot drops on either side, and only have a sketchy chain to hold onto. Did you ever go to hidden canyon? that shit is crazy
