Article Category: Recreation

Author Name: Lena Pimonova

Ever consider extreme hiking? Simply put hiking consists of walking or climbing among nature. This activity often occurs in mountainous or other scenic terrain. But there is another side of hiking that can kill you. It is not easy, relaxing or ideal. For those who like an adrenal rush like no other, then extreme hiking is for you. One place that fits right into this activity is called El Caminito Del Rey Spain or as the locals like to call it, "The walk of death".

The forms of extreme hiking are:.

Mountaineering: Mountaineering feels like running a marathon. This is basically moving up extreme elevations at a consistent pace. At some point you may walking and other times climbing. It is a hybrid sport and extremely dangerous.

Canyoneering: A difference between mountaineer and canyoneering is the direction of the rout. Those who travel up are the mountaineers and those, who travel down and around of canyons and crevasses are canyoneers. It's a very dangerous world in canyons. There are fast rivers and other dangers. It is advisable to have a good understanding of survival rope usage, ability to swim, and experience in rock climbing.

Coasteering: Much like a canyoneer is to traveling through extreme canyons, a coaster is focusing all his/her energy on the coast. Coasteering is not just moving along the coast. It involves moving among rock cliffs and treacherous lagoons. At any time, the ocean can send strong waves onto a Coasteer and easily drown them or smash them against the rocks.

One of the most interesting, yet deadly hiking trails is called El Caminito Del Rey Spain. To those that know it personally, it is called the "The Walk of Death". El Caminito Del Rey Spain was officially closed because of three tourists, who fell down from that cliff and met their death in 2000. Yet people ignore the signs and closures and continue to traverse this extremely treacherous path.

The Walk of Death is set at a healthy elevation of 1 312 feet (400 meters). This route does not forgive, as it is built on a vertical cliff. If you are interested in trying you hand on this trail, you will find it located within south-west Spain. People who live tell stories about that cliff. They claim the trail as the most dangerous and extreme route in the world.

The trail was named by King Alfonso XIII in May 1921. One day as he walked along the trail, the view impressed so much that he not only changed the name, but this formal naming because a holiday in the area.

There is more to the trail, then just the extreme nature of it. Natives there talk about a beautiful blonde ghost woman who repeatedly throws herself off the cliff because of a broken heart.

If your death wish is as strong as the myths that surround the trail, then get yourself ready. You can hook yourself onto the wall of the trail. There are places to hook yourself in, but to make it complete through to the old railroad, you will need to unhook yourself to transverse the many holes in the trail and missing walk ways. One slip means instant death. Avoid the trail during rain or mist. It is extremely to slip without weather conditions making it worse.

The majority of accidents happen because of human abilities to be wrong. People are jumping from the cliff, tied with ropes. This kind of extreme sport could be dangerous for life like a climbing is. Did you ask yourself what motivates those people? Why they risk their lives? I think the thing is in adrenaline, which they have after that. It's something what gives an amazing feeling of being alive and enjoying life anew. And it is great if everything ends fine, because such an adventure as extreme hiking sometimes could be dangerous if to ignore the simple rules. If you decided to visit el Caminito Del Rey Spain - treat it with a great respect, because your life could depend on it.
