Hairy Scary Hiking Trail – Would You?

The other day when I was looking up hiking on Kauai, Hawaii this video popped into my field of view on Youtube. Initially I thought, yeah sure – scariest trail.

Then I watched it.

This hiking “trail” has got to be the most dangerous I’ve ever seen – and, most of it is concrete trail. That is, where the concrete hasn’t just fallen apart and down the side of the mountain leaving the metal bar framework to walk on!

In Hawaii we have some trails that are slippery and a bit hairy, I wouldn’t call them hairy scary though.

Don’t miss at 5:51 where he walks toe-to-heel over the beam.

A must-see video for anyone that hikes because as the hiker goes on, you’ll question yourself and whether you would keep going. I’d have to see it live before deciding if I’d do it.

Would you hike this trail?

    1. Who the hell made that trail?
    – looks like it was made for a dam or something
    2. How many people have died hiking it?

      Good question. I didn’t check! Someone left a comment on the video at youtube that the ones walking it were attached to a wire that runs along the side of the cliff. But, the guy filming doesn’t appear to be attached to anything because where others clip off and re-clip, he doesn’t seem to slow down at all. Scary stuff – great video whoever took it.
