Ready To Hike THIS?
Time to head back to China for a nice walk: get some fresh air, see the sights….AND WATCH YOUR STEP!
Yes, here is the world’s most dangerous mountain hike! If you need more proof, well HAVE I GOT IT FOR YOU!
Thanks as always to the way folks at “RocketNews24″ for posting this story, which they say was originally uploaded by the website “Izismile”.
Look at how you begin to climb this baby!
Climb Aboard The “Hua Shan Trail!”
This is 100% true: this is a hiking trail! These are photos of the Hua Shan trail, which crosses over, under and between the five peaks of the 7066 foot Hua Shan mountain in China’s Shaanxi Province!
According to RocketNews24, “the trail is known among tourists as ‘the world’s most dangerous hiking trail’ on account of its steep climbs and sheer drops alongside which narrow paths snake.”
Um, YEAH!
As you can see, they have found a way to make every part of this mountain “hike-able” – as long as you have no fear of heights!
