Dangerous route - Caminito del Rey in Spain (18 photos)

Before you is one of the most dangerous travel destinations in the world - Caminito del Rey in Spain.
The construction of this mountain trail began in 1901.
The road was intended for employees of hydroelectric power plants located in the area and had to tie the two waterfalls on which they are located.
In 1905, the trail opened.
In 1921 it was held by King Alfonso Eighth, heading for the opening of a nearby dam.
That's when the road got its name.
At this point the path width of 1 meter, located at an altitude of 300 meters, is in disrepair.
On it there are no railings, and some of the general failed.
Once at the Royal trail began to die, tourists, local authorities have forbidden to walk on it.
But that does not stop the brave souls who want to risk their lives by going to the end of the route.
