Located at Al-Ain, UAE ( Hafeet Mountain )

Everytime i visit Al-Ain, i always have to go to Hafeet for a cruise, it has has a 5 star hotel on the top of the mountain, but the most fun about this cruise is the way down, and i think it would be one of the worlds best tracks in the world check it out...

According to an article written by Alistair Weaver and published in Edmunds website, "The Jebel Hafeet Mountain Road in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the greatest driving road in the world. Stretching for 7.3 miles and climbing nearly 4,000 feet, it boasts 60 corners and a surface so smooth that it would flatter a racetrack. It could easily be described as the eighth wonder of the world, but almost nothing is known about its creation."

hope u have a good trip....and about the car that flipped in jebel hafeet, i dont know about the porsche but i know alot of car crashes happened there from tight corners and stupid drivers but now its safe cuz they have updated all the signs u need there ...there r 60 corners, and some of them r really steep going down and hard going up so drive slow on these please, and i would rather go with a manual cuz u will be using 2nd gear alot, the nice thing about it though is the view, there r lots of parking spaces for u to stop and check out the mountain and views of Al-Ain...
