Wow.

I'd say every chance this was shot with a head mounted camera, but he was going too fast to have been clipping himself on to the safety line there. His are bigger than mine!

What an amazing place though - and equally amazing that the walkway is still accessed. OHS hasn't heard of that country!

Imagine building that walkway in the first place too.

I like the casual way all the walkers seem to greet each other, I get the heebie jeebies just thinking about going up there. I notice the guy clipping on the hand rail ropes wears a harness

I want to know how in hell they built it in the first place and how big theirs were??

I just sent it to my mate and told him I was going to dive the canal but I have to carry all my scuba gear along the trail.

not trying to brag or anything but i have walked the Camino del Rey, it is a very popular climbing venue in Spain

it is such a dramatic place and i have some very fond memories of it.

the best part of it is that some of the climbs are accessed by either abseiling from the walkway down to the river below then climbing back up... or climbing straight up vertical rock from the walkway itself. those cliffs are almost 1000ft if memory serves me?

as some people have already said, how it was built amazes me. as part of the construction (i believe) there was a rather hefty steel cable that used to span the gorge, maybe 30mm thick steel or more but rusty. it was attached by being basically wrapped around a LARGE bit of timber that was wedged in a crevice in the rock. this cable ran down hill for about 2/3 of its length then turned uphill for the remaining third, and it was equiped with a bike wheel with a bike headstock, forks and handle bars welded to the wheel axle.
(apparently the first person who tried it broke both legs)

well, we decided to cross that cable in our climbing harnesses, about a dozen people crossed it that day, it was very scary, but a good laugh.

i have since heard (not confirmed i add) that the cable snapped during a similar crossing by a group of german climbers....

i have some great photos, but not digital unfortunately, and no scanner.

Around the one minute make you can see his shadow and to me it looks like he's holding the camera at chest level........ even scarier
