I can only image how magnificent the scenery would be on this road. It would also be breathtaking for me, I would never be able to travel on this road. It would literally take my breath away. What a shame that I am so afraid of heights that I could not enjoy this sight. I understand that this is a road somewhere in the Alps. Oh how I wish I could travel it and take some photos of the mountain peaks and valleys. Not to mention the little villages below and those clinging to the sides of the mountains. Are you afraid of heights or are you someone who could take this road and enjoy the scenery?

It's beautiful, I watch a lot of documentary travel shows. I especially adore the Alps and I'm not afraid of the height

@LowRiderX I absolutely love the beauty of it but, oh dear, the height makes me have vertigo.

We take roads like this almost every day living in this part of the world. I am afraid of heights but not when my husband drives on those roads. I have seen a lot worse than this. I am pretty sure that this roads is in the Alps.

@HazySue I do not fear to go on a road like this. I see that the rail is good, surely a Swiss or Austrian road. I would be concerned in Italy, where there is no protection.

You are right it is in the Alps. I don't think I could go on a road worse than this even with my eyes closed.

@LadyDuck The height is a deterrent for me.

I've been on roads like that in Italy and in other parts of Europe where they don't believe in guardrails. It scared the heck out of me!!!!

I'm not afraid of heights...but narrow cliff roads can be very intimidating.

@UncleJoe we drove a short piece near Roanoke just a few short weeks ago. The road from the parkway to the interstate was a bit intimidating with its hairpin turns and steep drops. The mountains on the west coast this September should also be pretty spectacular.

It looks like West Virginia. There are many roads like that. I am afraid of heights and sometimes shut my eyes.

It is beautiful I would love to be able to view it in person if I could walk the pathway, one with a strong guardrail that I could hold on to.
