El Caminito del Rey


First view - the old walkway, with via ferrata below - and the bridge.
Starting out across the cliff ...
... scrambling up to the pathway.


















The pathway, being old, is missing some bits ...
... some of those bits are bigger than others ...


... so you want to be good on your feet ...


















... or willing to think laterally.
But this is all worth it, for the soaring cliffs above ...
... the stunning construction ...

... and the terrific exposure.
And what a view, looking back!
