62. Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road, Abu Dhabi
Constructed: 1980
Risk Factor: Risk of falling off the cliff while driving
In 1980, Dubai built the Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road. It is located on the outskirts of Al Ain, and the road extends for over seven minutes up the mountain before it tops out at 4,000 feet above sea level. The road is one of the most scenic in the U.A.E., and anyone who is looking for a thrill should consider taking it on.

The Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road’s hazards come from its elevation. There is always the chance, since there is little to no shoulder on the road, that your car’s tires will slip and you’ll plummet over the side.
