The world's most dangerous hike?

In this China travel vlog I explore the peaks of the famous Mt. Huashan, and try to find the legendary "plank walk," a wooden plank walk on the side of a mountain over 7,000 feet high. 

Mt. Huashan is beautiful and the plank walk is an incredible experience... if you can get in. 

Additional information about Mt. Huashan for anyone who wants to visit or try the plank walk.

In order to get there from Xi'an, you can take a bus from Xi'an to the Huashan tourist center (you can also take the fast train to a nearby city and take the local bus to the tourist center). 
At the tourist center, you can either start your walk up Mount Huashan (this will take a long time), or take a bus to one of the two cable cars, one for the north peak and one for the west peak. 

Either way you go, you will have enough time to walk to all the peaks. If your goal is the Huashan plank walk, keep in mind that the west peak is much closer (the plank walk is located on the south peak). BUT, because of this, and also because starting west and heading north is easier, it seems that the lines for the cable cars are much longer. 

Another thing to keep in mind is that solo travelers are no longer allowed on the Huashan Plank Walk. So bring a friend, or find one on the mountain (hopefully you can find as good a friend as Kevin). 

Hope you guys enjoyed the video. Stay tuned for part 3, the Xi'an travel vlog, coming soon.
