Road to Hana - Hana Highway, Maui County, Hawaii, USA

Maui, Hawaii: The road to Hana is probably the least treacherous on the list, however, that doesn’t mean it isn’t one of the most dangerous roads in the world. It’s a 62 mile winding mountainous road that connects Kahului to Hana. In its 62 miles you climb around 4,700 ft above sea level on roads so narrow that at many points there isn’t enough room for both sides of traffic. There are also 620 turns, most of them near hairpins, in just those 62 miles. For those of you bad at maths, that’s 10 turns per miles. That’s insane. The road surface is poor, there are few, if any, guardrails, insane amounts of tourism traffic and drop-offs that offer no chance of survival. Combine that with the beautifully breathtaking views which are of constant distraction, and the Road to Hana is one of the most dangerous roads in the world. I’ve personally been on this road, and at many points it’s gorgeous, but it’s mostly terrifying. But I’m afraid of heights, so maybe it’s just me.
