This video was filmed using a hand held Sony camcorder, also of interest the movie Von Ryans Express with Frank Sinatra was filmed there.
The gorge is famous for the very dangerous path called Caminito del Rey (King's little pathway). The path gave access to a hydro-electric plant and took its name after an official visit by Alfonso XIII of Spain in 1921. Official access to the path was removed in 2000 on safety grounds. In June 2011, the regional government of Andalusia and the local government of Málaga agreed to share costs of restoration of the Caminito (including car parking and a museum) of €9 million. The project will take approximately three years to complete.[1] Many of the original features will remain in place and the new materials that are used will be in keeping with the old design.
