Only for the brave!
Posted by Paul | 31.08.2010
I’ve just come back from one of the most terrifying experiences of my life: the Caminito del Rey. You wouldn’t believe how scary it is, but I’ve walked up it and felt very afraid! The Caminito del Rey is near Malaga in Spain. The name means ‘the king’s little path’, although for years, people have been calling it ‘the most dangerous path in the world’. Now I’ve seen it, I understand why!
The Caminito is a one-metre-wide path, 100 metres up a cliff, above the beautiful Guadalhorce River and Hoyo Valley. It’s more than 100 years old. Workers used to use it to get from the Chorro Falls to the Gaitanejo Falls. Over the years, holes have formed along the path and some parts of it are completely missing. You obviously need to be extremely careful there.
I recommend this path to people who love epic challenges. The views are amazing, but there have been some serious accidents here. So it’s definitely not for people who haven’t climbed rocks before!

I’ve been visiting Spain this week and I returned to the Caminito yesterday. Guess what? They’ve replaced the old path! The new path is made of wood and is very safe. I hear they’ve been working on it for four years, and have spent nearly €10 million! This has attracted more visitors to the cliff, but for me, the real thrill of the dangerous journey has gone.
