His longest walk since his SI Joint Fusion! 🥾1Way cool...we didn't find it unnerving at all.Great spot -- pic taken by a guy tasked with keeping people moving through.The Money Shot! (The wooden structure actually houses a pipe. The Suspension Bridge is beside it.)So fun to finally be here! I had tickets in 2024, but had to cancel due to my Achilles rupture 🤨.I prefer water the color of glacial melt, but this will do.Coming down after the Suspension Bridge. Ten people max on the bridge. That spot was VERY windy!Looking back. Very cool to walk across the bridge and be this high up in the gorge.More cantilevered boardwalk and the water below.Another shot showing the cantilevered boardwalk hugging the rock....and Tom rounds the cornerMe at the end of the gorge section. The gorge walk is 5K, plus 3K total of access trails.Cool railroad bridge near the end of the hike.Cool railroad bridge near the end of the hikeOne more shot of the cool railroad bridge near the end of the hike.Pretty church/school near the end of the hike -- for the families of the dam workers.Hiking the El Chorro Gorge - Video 1 (I'm not so good at videos).Hiking the El Chorro Gorge - Video 2A bit of trail maintenance. Definitely clipped in!Thought I'd shoot a video crossing the Suspension bridge but I succumbed to wind after only 0:06!😳

    Caminito del Rey

    22. maj, Spanien ⋅ ⛅ 70 °F

    We took a day off of cycling to hike the Caminito del Rey in El Chorro Gorge. A walkway was made along the gorge walls in 1905, so workers could move materials between two hydroelectric power plants. The Spanish King inaugurated the path and walked it in 1921 -- Caminito del Ray translates to "The King´s little Pathway.” It deteriorated (at least five people fell to their deaths) but was rebuilt and reopened in 2015. Definitely a bucket list item to walk this path!Læs mere
