Many deaths and injuries are due to inexperience, lack of prep, poor decision making &/or weather. The trails themselves, are what they are. 9/10 it's the hikers that make a hike dangerous.

In terms of hiking in Hawaii, Kalalau isn’t even top 20 most dangerous trails. The Ko’olau Summit Trail makes Kalalau look like a casual stroll in a park by comparison. Kalalau seems more dangerous in terms of statistics because it’s one of the most popular hikes in the state

I hiked Mt. Washington a dozen times via every route. Tuckerman is the one you send your friend up when they bail on Huntington Ravine. In fact, Tuckerman is the easiest route up Washington. Sections of Huntington are as close to technical rock climbing as you can get without rope. My favorite trail of all time.

Angel’s landing didn’t have any safety rails/chains whatever in 1975, when I did it and it still wasn’t dangerous unless you were extremely retarded.

They are just some famous hiking trails with a few risks(strong wind/a little exposure/slippery conditions), but not the "most dangerous" at all.
@dcl9721 күн бұрын
Most of these, Mist, Bright Angel, Angels Landing are just because they attract tourists who have little to no actual experience and act like idiots. Capitol and maybe Half Dome are the only ones that are innately dangerous. Lots of accidents "near" mist trail but almost never on it. Climbing up the waterfall, isn't part of the actual trail. It's stupid tourists being stupid. Virtually everyone that has died on Angels Landing did so because of their own reckless behavior that had nothing to do with the actual trail.

Having hiked to the top of Mt. Washington many times I can say the Tuckerman Ravine trail is the most popular but not the most dangerous. Weather aside, trails like the Huntington Ravine trail is more dangerous, a section of it is a rock climb.

The death toll for the Tuckerman Ravine Trail on Mt Washington is no where near the 150 lives lost listed on the video. That figure is for the entire mountain area and most of those are during winter conditions and bad weather exposure (can happen even in middle of summer here). Yes, the trail is steep and treacherous but it cannot claim all the lives lost in the wider area over the hundreds of years that people have been visiting the area.
@johnsilva913911 күн бұрын
Also, some of those deaths were in car accidents driving up or down the mountain on the auto road.

Mt Washington’s wind speed record was broken in 1996. Also on earth is a bit of stretch as tornadoes can cause winds far above 300mph.
@CrabbyOldLady25 күн бұрын
Volcanic eruptions trump tornadoes. The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha‘apai volcanic eruption in January 2022 created shockwaves so powerful that they triggered winds as high as 450 mph, that were measurable by satellites at altitudes of 120 miles above the earth's surface.

wind is measured from a horizontal flow and Mt Wash still holds the record for a manned area. Barrow Island is an unmanned station, but it technically holds the record

I was surprised that the trail to Camp Muir on Mt Rainier wasn't on this list. I have seen it on other similar lists. This trail gives people an illusion of safety because you can look back and see the visitor center from many places on this trail. So it FEELS like you are still close to safety. However, the weather can change rapidly up on Mt Rainier and many people get lost in whiteout conditions and succumb to the cold or walk off a cliff.
@aliensoup242026 күн бұрын
I've been on 4 of these : Half Dome, Mist Trail, Kalalau, and Bright Angel GC. Bright Angel isn't that bad, just long with lots of steps. There is plenty of water available. The South Kaibab trail is probably worse because it has no water and is more exposed to the sun. The Mist Trail isn't so bad either. You just have to step carefully and wear proper shoes. The danger on Half Dome and Angel's Landing would be alleviated if people would wear a harness and tether to attach to the safety cable or chain. Longs Peak CO is a pretty gnarly trail on the Narrows and final ascent to the top.

I have only just started watching, and already there is an error that I noticed straight away. The Overland track in Tasmania runs through the Cradle Mountain - Lake St Clair National Park. The Walls of Jerusalem National Park is a separate national park and the Overland Track does not run through it.

I don’t know if I think Roslagsleden places on a top 10. But it’s one of the most accessible hikes and most of its eleven day trips are both children friendly and beautiful (in the summer at least). And I think all of its day trips starts and stops near public transportation.

@@HikingHikers If you stay on high altitude where it´s windy I think you´ll be alright. But if you go down a valley where it´s wet -beware! Best is to contact a tourist station. I would think that the more popular trails are chosen where there´s not a lot of mosquitos. But don´t take my word for it. I once entered a forest in the middle of Sweden and it was hell. I entered 10 meters and then I had to run out. The mosquitos (myggen) are so vicious!

Germany is a hiker's paradise and I will return many times!
