Hikers on the Caminito del Rey - El Chorro gorge (Spain)

This "bridge" (in front of the person with the red jacket) crosses over a small side canyon. There is no guard-rail on either side of the 4m (12ft) long rotten concrete slab, and under it, a 100m (300ft) drop-off and the river below. It takes some guts to cross, and it's better to not think for too long before walking across.

The Caminito del Rey is a vertiginous and very dangerous trail attached to a vertical cliff in a canyon near El Chorro, in southern Spain.
