7. Moher Cliffs, Ireland

This biking trail in Ireland would give an extreme adventure sports fanatic an or*asm. The winding track is 4 feet in width at its widest portion and was featured as the "cliffs of insanity" in the 1987 movie 'The Princess Bride'

8. The Trift Suspension Bridge, Switzerland

The Trift Bridge is one of the most spectacular pedestrian suspension bridges of the Swiss Alps. It is 100 meters high and 170 meters long, and is poised above the region of the Trift Glacier. Even reaching the bridge through the ravine by cable car is an adventure.

9. Phugtal Monastery, Ladakh, India

Located in the Zanskar region of Ladakh, the monastery is a unique construction of mud and timber. It is built at the entrance of a cave on the cliff-face of a lateral gorge of a major tributary of the Lungnak (Lingti-Tsarap) River. From a distance, the monastery looks like a giant honeycomb.

This is the only monastery that can be reached by foot. The altitude and limited options for food make it a little difficult for visitors to adapt to.

10. El Caminito Del Rey, Spain

Known as the "Little Pathway of the King," this was built in 1905 and has had little to no repairs done until recently. Therefore, bold climbers enjoy braving the sections that are dangerous and completely disintegrated.

11. Devils Pool, Zambia

The Devil's Pool forms the lip of the Victoria Falls, Africa's highest waterfall, which borders Zambia and Zimbabwe. A lot of visitors have lost their lives trying to get the perfect view of the 355 foot cascade but that hasn't stopped the local tourism industry from stopping tourists from visiting it.

12. Stolen Chimney, Fisher Tower, USA

The Stolen Chimney is a route located on the Ancient Arts tower, one of the Fisher Towers in Moab National Park, Utah. This is the most common route to ascend the Corkscrew Summit of the tower, which is the western most summit of the Ancient Arts tower but is not the tallest. The summit is noteworthy for its extremely unusual shape which makes climbing this technically different from most other climbs.
