A 3Km (9483 ft) path doesn’t seem that long by western standards considering that the Great Allegheny Passage and the C & O Canal Trail combined are nearly 320 miles. But what China’s Shifou Mountain Footpath lacks in distance, it makes up for in height, engineering and awe-inspiring views. But don’t take my word for it. If a picture paints a thousand words, then this video must be good for at least a million.
