A group of us walked this about 10 yrs ago. It's near Malaga in southern Spain and it leads to the most fascinating veiws about.
I think it's closed to the public now as they were talking of carrying out a restoration project.
And there are sections of it where your palms start sweating and you start shaking, very scary but also quite amazing.
