9Stairway to Heaven, Hawaii

On the island of Oʻahu, the Stairway to Heaven, also known as the Haʻikū Stairs, is a difficult hiking trail with a total of 3,922 steps.

However, the “no trespassing” signs haven’t stopped people from climbing the broken and unmaintained stairway. Although it’s illegal to climb the stairs, police issued 135 tickets to trespassers between June and December 2014. In some cases, climbers have been injured on the dangerous hike — some even plunging to their deaths.
