Is the Back Road to Hana Dangerous? Driving Maui’s Wild South Side | Piilani Highway
May 11, 2026
Driving Piilani Highway (Highway 31)—also known as the "Back Side" of the Road to Hana.
This is the remote South side of Maui. The rugged, and often misunderstood side of Maui. From dramatic volcanic cliffs and the narrow, unpaved cliffside passes, this drive offers a completely different side of nature than the traditional route. #mauibackroad #roadtohana #hawaiiroadtravel
