1. Mount Hau Chan (China)[/b]
Depending upon whom you talk to, this may be
the deadliest hike in the entire world. Although
there are no official figures to go by (this is
China, after all), some estimates claim that up
to 100 people every year meet their makers on
this trail. Its easy to see why this would be
the case when you take a look at it. A large
section of the trail involves traversing a small
set of planks bolted into the side of a cliff
Yikes!

[b]2. Kalalau Trail (Hawaii)[/b]
First things first, this hiking trail is going to
take you through some difficult terrain. As you
make you way through the Hawaiian heat, and
as you push your way up and down steep
inclines through the jungle, youre going to
find that this trail is a worthy adversary.
However, there are other things to be
concerned about. For example, a Japanese
hiker found himself crossing paths with a drug
addict. The Japanese hiker was pushed to his
death over a cliff.

[b]3. 3. Caminito Del Rey (Spain)[/b]
Mount Hau Chan in China isnt the only trail
on this list that involves treacherous paths
along the side of sheer cliff faces. Thats
because Caminito Del Rey is on the list, too!
This path is located in Spain, and it requires
hikers to traverse over two miles of concrete
and steel paths built into the side of a sheer
cliff face. Those paths are, in actuality, plenty
generous Where they exist. Parts of the trail
have fallen into disrepair, and those hiking will
need to make due with whats left.

[b]4. The Maze (Utah)[/b]
The Maze is a small part of the much larger
Canyonlands National Park in Utah, which
claims the lives of unprepared hikers
seemingly every year. Now, not many people
make it as far as The Maze, as its located in a
very remote section of the park. That being
said, those that make it that far find the going
to be very treacherous. Sudden rock falls can
happen, and its very easy to get lost in a
never-ending stream of dead ends.

[b]5. Mount Pinatubo (Philippines)[/b]
As far as actually hiking is concerned, this one
might be the easiest on the list! Depending
upon how fast you go, it only takes about an
hour to two hours round trip. Plus, its easy
going! So, what is it that makes this hike so
terrifying, then? Well, Mount Pinatubo is an
active volcano, and its been known to blow
its top when geologists least expect it to. For
example, it popped off in 1991, claiming the
lives of 800 unprepared hikers.

Drakensberg Traverse (South Africa)[/b] This 40-mile hiking trail will take you through the heart of Natal National Park in South Africa. As you might expect, the views from several areas around the trek are absolutely incredible. However, youve got to be one hell of a hiker to get to those places. For example, theres one section of the trail that involves a climb up a rock cliff thats roughly three times the size of the famous El Capitan Yosemite. [img]https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13516352_1029947117059262_5721115245219246078_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=3a99189875a85867d4618e982a108522&oe=57FC5298[/img] [b]7. Mount Washington (New Hampshire)[/b] Every year, tens of thousands of people make their way to Mount Washington in beautiful New Hampshire. They believe that theyre going to get a signature New England experience, failing to realize that this includes experiencing New England weather, which can be incredibly mercurial! Nowhere is this more evident than on this hiking trail, which has been said to experience some of the worlds worst weather. Its the elements, and not the trail, that ultimately claim the lives of ill- prepared hikers. [img]https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13507220_1029947553725885_1464402270411035301_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=02d860f52a781c9c55eb119d91235e84&oe=57E8825A[/img] [b]8. Huayna Picchu (Peru)[/b] Heres a trail that claims at least a couple of lives every years part of the reason its become known as the Hike of Death. Now, when you first look at it, you might not think much of it. It is, after all, an old Incan granite staircase. However, the staircase totals 1,000 steps, many of which are crumbled and can become slippery due to the weather. Making it up is the easy part, though. Its getting back down the steep incline that often proves too much. [img]https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13528744_1029952793725361_6009069292011894494_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=c03dc6e71ddf8395600c1e0338acc10f&oe=5836405E[/img] [b]9. Maroon Bells South Ridge (Colorado)[/b] Theres a lot about this trail that should strike fear into the hearts of novice and expert hikers alike. Of course, it might lull you into a false sense of security. The beginning of the trail takes you up approximately 11,000 feet, and its actually fairly easy all things being equal. However, theres still more to hike after that! As you get higher, things get increasingly more difficult, and those that havent gone in prepared may find themselves paying with their lives. [img]https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13567138_1029953190391988_1976665268976397748_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=2f5e4bce87ca4856a1c93632f8f32bc6&oe=57F7D684[/img] [b]10. Angels Landing (Utah)[/b] This hike is only about a half mile long. So, youre saying to yourself, What could possibly go wrong? Well, the thing to fear about this trail isnt the trail itself, its the number of other people who will be hiking it at the same time you are. The trail itself is incredibly thing, which means that traffic jams are quite common. This can become a deadly problem as you near the top, as more than a few people have been accidently pushed off the cliff-face by other careless hikers.

Cascade Saddle (New Zealand)[/b] New Zealand is without a doubt one of the most beautiful places in the entire world, and the Cascade Saddle gives you the opportunity to see some of the best of that country. However, you need to be prepared if youre going to tackle this 11-mile trek. If not, you might meet the same fate as 12 other individuals who found themselves slipping and falling to their deaths while traversing wet stone. [img]https://scontent-amt2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13524459_1029954867058487_935096004296132573_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=d722098779eb70dbeb8533d8dc7f862c&oe=57FFB566[/img] [b]12. Rovers Run Trail (Alaska)[/b] If Stephen Colbert were to have a trail on this list that he would fear most, it would be this one. Fans of the current Late Night hosts former program, The Colbert Report, will remember the Stephen has a preternatural fear of bears. Well, thats the risk thats posed by this beautiful trial through the Far North Bicentennial Park. During the summer months, Brown Bears flock to this idyllic location, and maulings can and will happen.

Bright Angel Trail (Arizona)[/b] The Bright Angel Trail is a part of the Grand Canyon National Park. You might think that because the trail is a part of a world-famous landmark that there wont be much to fear, but youd be wrong. The hike will take you just under 10 miles round trip, which may not seem like much. But, when you couple that with the staggering heat that the area is known for Well, running out of water can be an incredibly terrifying experience! [img]https://scontent-amt2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13537521_1029958553724785_4816946043423945717_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=a6e873833762002ede460ab22d05919e&oe=580013A6[/img] [b]14. Mist Trail (California)[/b] This trail is exceptionally popular, something that might make you inclined to think that its far safer than it actually is. As you make your way up the trail, youll be treated to some pretty incredible views. However, as you approach the end, youll find that you have a lightly aided climb up of pure piece of rock. That climb is steep and difficult. Its not too bad on the way up, though. But, when youre staring back down it from the top of Half Dome Well Its pretty terrifying! [img]https://scontent-amt2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/fr/cp0/e15/q65/13557767_1029959030391404_2007941159807869600_n.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9&oh=646507d61dd41854b69dafcdbe7c078f&oe=57FC93F0[/img] [b]15. The Devils Path (New York)[/b] When you think of hiking trails in upstate New York, youre likely not thinking deadly. That only means that youve never hear of the Devils Path before. This mammoth 24-mile trail takes would-be adventurers up and down three separate mountains, all on treacherous terrain. Often, hikers will need to traverse wet and slipper rock chutes and cliff faces, something that leads to at least one death along this trail annually. If you can hack it, though, the views can be spectacular!
