There is a safety line on the Camino ,just not much of one!

Those walkways on Mount Hua are seriously narrow though ,and have not always had safety lines!The Monks who first used them would mostly travel at night - the thought was they could not then see the danger they were in!

I remember watching a video of a glass lift going really high up the side of a mountain.

That observation deck is fairly high - I saw helicopters and airships flying by underneath me when I was up there!

As you cannot stand that close to the edge at all and the barriers are very hefty ,the feeling is not too bad - you dont get too much of a sense of how high you actually are!
