7. Cliff Path at Blue Mountains, Australia



The Blue Mountains are located in New South Wales, Australia, bordering the bustling city of Sydney at a distance of about 31 miles (50 km.).



The cliff path of the mountain range called the Mid Cliff Walk was carved into the face of the cliff. It includes handrails, ladders and gorgeous lookouts that provide a birds-eye view over the forests, the remote Jamison Valley and the Wentworth Falls.

9. Jiankou Great Wall, China



Jiankou is a section of the famous Great Wall of China which happens to be one of the most popular among travelers and photographers alike.



Jiankou has unique steep mountains and insanely beautiful scenery. 'Jiankou' means 'Arrow Nock' in English, called this name because the mountain is shaped like an arrow.



The climb, however, could be dangerous because this section has fallen into disrepair, leaving the path filled with jagged cliffs and steep drop-offs.




While other parts of the wall have been turned into tourist attractions, the Jiankou section has been left largely untouched and therefore usually attracts the more adventurous types.

10. Cap Carbon Paths, Algeria



An Algerian cape located in Wilaya de Bejaia, the Cap Carbon paths are only 5 km. (3.1 mi.) from Bejaia's city center.



The path is equipped with a lighthouse, built at 220 m (720 ft.) above sea level, making it one of the tallest in the Mediterranean. The trails are long and winding with great views of the sea, carved into the rocks of the peninsula.



The trails are surrounded with pine and olive trees and are inhabited by local monkeys that like to entertain visitors.
