walking along the king's walkway, A's footage, after climbing. 100ft drop. it got dark before we got to the end, so we abbed off..."U abbed before mongo?" erm yeah, once. It B Cool..!
A walk along the high level, decrepit, and dangerously exposed Camino del Rey, El Chorro, Spain with original music by us (but you have to wait for it !) The walkway is one meter (3 feet and 3 inches) in width, and rises over 100 meters (350 feet) above the river below. It is currently in a highly deteriorated state and there are numerous sections where part of or the entire concrete top has collapsed away. The result is large open air gaps that are bridged only by narrow steel beams or other support fixtures. Very few of the original handrails exist but a Via ferrata safety-wire runs the length of the path. Several people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years and after two fatal accidents the local government closed both entrances.
On christmas day me and Brad walked the Camino Del Rey. Both of us were nervous as we hadn't done anything like it before, but what a great way to spend mid winter! We don't recommend copying our via ferrata gear, and don't advise the sling and carabiner setup as they are not designed to hold fall factor 2 falls as they have no dynamic strength. Music - Shpongle

A walk on the ramshackle Caminito del Rey, El Chorro Spain.
The 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. HISTORY: In 1901 it was obvious that the workers of the Chorro Falls and Gaitanejo Falls needed a walkway to cross between the falls, to provide transport of materials, vigilance and maintenance of the channel. Construction of the walkway lasted four years. It was finished in 1905. In 1921 the king Alfonso XIII had to cross the walkway for the inauguration of the dam Conde del Guadalhorce, and it became known by its present name. The walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is one meter (3 ft) in width, and is over 700 feet (200 m) tall. Nearly all of the path has no 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 Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall.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.
