The Caminito del Rey (roughly "narrow royal path"), predominantly also known as the Camino del Rey ("royal path"), was a three-kilometre-long via ferrata until 2015 and is now a comfortable and secured hiking trail near Álora in the province of Málaga in southern Spain. It leads at a height of around 100 metres along steep walls through two narrow gorges up to 200 metres deep. It was abandoned and closed for a long time and was labelled the most dangerous path in the world by the media during this time. It was reopened to the public in 2015. The area is known among climbers as El Chorro, an excellent winter climbing area. (Source: Wikipedia).
