10 of the most dangerous roads of the world. The most terrible roads in the world

  • 04.11.2020

The following roads take the lives of people every year. We offer you a list of the most terrible and deadly roads that you have not seen yet.

Stelvio Pass is a mix of beauty and danger. Throughout the path, the gaze opens the breathtaking Italian species. Drivers meet 75 steep turns under the tilt. Because of this, the pass is considered the very looping road of Europe. Some devices make the machine to deploy 180 degrees

Opened road only from May to September. The risk of collaps, slippery asphalt and poor visibility sometimes makes the authorities to close the road even in the warm season. The route protects the half-meter concrete feet, which at an altitude of 2700 meters causes dizziness even from drivers with experience.

Highway Dalton, Alaska

Dalton length - 666 km. The number hints that it is not worth the fellow ride. The road is isolated, only 3 small villages are found on the length of the route, the number of residents of which is 57 people. The rest of the path drivers are surrounded by ice and snow.


The Dalton Highway is rightly called the most snow-covered and one of the most dangerous tracks. Every year, it becomes the cause of hundreds of traffic accidents due to the fact that most of the year the crust of ice is covered by the road, and losing control and getting stuck in the snow - a matter of several seconds.

Photos of the road resemble photoshop. It is difficult to believe that almost a 100-meter top of the bridge is possible to call. Such a height is necessary for the passage of overall ship.


The length of the road is 1.7 km, which makes the slope when moving is not more than 6%, but the view of the bridge scares.

The road is closed in autumn and winter, and in the warm season it is a popular attraction. Tourists attract an amazing view that opens from a height of 850 meters above sea level.


Lifting to the top consists of 11 cool turns on sharp cliffs, fenced with concrete fence and stones. There are parking, souvenir shops, sightseeing platform and waterfall.

The road was built for the transport of mining equipment in the canyon, full of gold. The path to the precious metal was laid in the 1900s. During this time, he took no one life. The road captains are narrow, with soft and harvested soil. Since the founding, no infrastructure or asphalt has appeared. In some areas, two cars running in one direction are not placed.


During the rain, the path turns into a marsh mash, pull out from which the car can only special equipment. There are no fences on the way, so during a shower, the soft earth will appear and forms failures. It is impossible to achieve damage to damage to machines on this road.

Traveling this highway meets stonepads, landslides, extreme weather conditions, avalanches and lack of oxygen. Sometimes due to unsuccession, the highway is closed for 2-3 months. Even with solar and dry weather on the track, bloody and deadly accidents occur.


The highway passes through the picturesque mountain range and covers 14 mountain vertices, the average height of which is 4-5 km. The peak point of the path is a pass at an altitude of 6 km above sea level. A mountain illness sometimes appears from unusual drivers to such conditions. Therefore, Sichuan-Tibetan highway is the most dangerous in the country.

Local residents call Gholian dear, which does not tolerate errors. Incorrect movement easily drives the car trap. In the tunnel paved in the sheer cliffs, many slots, which come out straight to the deadly cliff, and sharp turns are not fenced with anything. Because of this, the car is easily flying off the track and break.


The width of the road is less than 4 meters. Little tourist buses are clinging to narrow openings between cliffs, and it is simply impossible to rear in two cars on the site of a distance of 1 km long. There is no artificial lighting in the tunnel, it is covered with the "windows" slabs.

North Road of Jungas or "Death Road"

Jungas is deserved to be the title of the most dangerous road in the world. On the "Dear Death", 300 people die annually and 30 cars and buses are broken. The length of the path is 69 km, and the width - 3.2 m. It is impossible to disperse two vehicles in places, so drivers are arranged to negotiate the time of travel.


In the most narrow places, the car hangs the wheel over the abyss, the depth of which is 600 meters. The height of the "Death Road" reaches 3.6 km. Weather and climate are also driving a movement. Fogs reduce visibility on the road to several meters, and moisture and rains provoke landslides. The worst thing - there is no alternative to the road, and local residents use it every day.

Sodori La.

Together with cars and buses, a 11-kilometer pass overcomes the horned cattle. They are moving only in one direction: movement on the architecture-La unilateral, in the opposite sides of the car ride in turn. The road is open only from May to October, from 4 am to 4 days. The height of the mountain path is 3529 meters.

The danger does not reduce the influx of cars. Sometimes traffic jams are formed on the codes, during which transport columns are built before steep turns. No fences or asphalt coverage should be expected. It complicates the movement of a sharp change of the weather: on one side of the pass shines the sun, and on the second - it rains.

Los Karakoles.

The road connects Argentina and Chile, so there is a constantly large stream of cars on it: passenger cars, trucks and large tourist buses. The path passes along the slope of the harsh Alps and winds serpentine from 20 turns. Road covering quality, but slopes and sharp drives are difficult to pass.


The crust of ice, which appears after freezing, significantly aggravates the passage of the path. Most of the year Potted snowed. The authorities are followed by the state of the road, purify and repair it. Protective fences over the entire length of the transport highway are not found.

People living in Russia can scare different things, but not on the road. Almost any foreign wonder from the given list in the native fatherland, analogue will be detected, and then, perhaps, not one, but straight dozens! But still let's see what the rest of the planets are afraid and what roads they deserve the fame of the most dangerous and terrifying.

1. Mountain Death Mountain

The old route from the capital of Bolivia La Pas to the city of Koroiko - Northern Las Yungas - has a second, more frequently used name: El Camino de La Maertte, that is, the death road. These 64 km of asphalt, which lead down the edge of the mountain Altiplano from a height of 4650 meters to a height of 1200 meters, in the 1930s, built Paraguaye prisoners of war during the war.

Movement on the road of death (unlike the rest of the Bolivian trails) is allowed in both directions, but the road canvas here is not wider than 3 meters and does not have safety fence.

The monstrous difference of the heights of the upper and lower point of the death of death is the reason that the travelers descending on it are moving from alpine coolness to tropical heat. Because of the time, rain, fogs, collars and landslides are so frequent on a short cutting of the road. Someone from the mountain directly to the asphalt run waterfalls.

As a result, any awkwardness or driver error can lead to a drop in the abyss of a depth of 600 meters.

Everywhere on the road there are memorable signs and labels, indicating the disaster places, car drops and the death of people. Every year the death road carried out dozens of lives. On July 24, 1983, a bus broke down from her, more than a hundred people died.

Finally, in the late 90s, Bolivia power was built a dubler road, a new and more secure. But the death road was not closed: it became a tourist attraction. Guides are treated by foreigners and organize extreme cycling tours.

2. Railway Death

Railway path 415 kilometers long (of which 13 km - bridges) between Bangkok (Thailand) and Rangoome (Burma) are also called expensive death, but not because of the danger of movement on it, but because its construction has caused the death of several thousand people . Maybe more accurate would be the name of the deads road.

This is probably the only construction in the world recognized as a war crime.

In 1942, the Imperial Japan invaded Thailand to Burma, releasing it from the UK. For the supply of Japanese troops in the "Burmese campaign" it took the road.

When the British ruled by Burma, they considered it an unbearable task: lay almost half a thousand kilometers through hilly jungle with a large number of rivers.

However, samurai grand ideas did not embarrass. After all, they did not assume their own hands to build. Yes, and you were not going to pay for work. They used labor of 180 thousand Asian convicts and 60 thousand prisoners of war - British, Australians, Dutch, Americans and other participants of the anti-Hitler coalition. The conditions of work and content were such that during the construction, about 90 thousand Asian convicts and 16 thousand prisoners of war were died. After the war, Hiroshi Abe is an overseer of the camp for prisoners of war - he was personally guilty of the death of 3,000 prisoners and sentenced to 15 years in prison.

The road was built in 1943, but as a result of hostilities, she came to an unfounded state. Nevertheless, 130 km of the path after the war reconstructed. There were even plans to fully restore the road.

In the meantime, riding on the "hellish pass" route near the city of Kanchanaburi to the north-west of the capital of Thailand - where the train envelopes the cliffs and passes several wooden bridges - is one of the popular tourist entertainment.

Are there ghosts there, unknown. Nowadays, only the classic film "Bridge over the Kwai River" and several museums and memorial cemeteries are reminded of the sad events on the road of death.

3. Glass trail and "paradise gates"

On Mount Tianmene, one of the highest vertices of China (1518.6 meters above sea level), in the National Park, an amazing tourist complex is located near the town of Zhangjiajie, part of which is a unique glass trail and the longest and high cable car in the world. Its spans reach 500 m, and the total length is 7455 m! The name of the road on Chinese sounds very romantic: "Gates to the sky". But in English, the romance is already dubious: the name Heaven's Gate, rather, gives out a fearless attitude of many travelers who had the opportunity to spend some terrible and exciting minutes in the cabin suspended in the middle of the clouds on the steel cable.

There many covers timidity. But if there are those who do not frighten the height of the cowle, then the suspension glass trail will lead fear for anyone. The suspension path leads along the mountain right along the edge of the abyss among bizarre relict trees. In some places, the floor of the hanging track glass. You can see clouds under your feet. And remember the fragility and the fragility of the Earth Being.

However, neither accidents nor the disaster on the mountain of heavenly gratis have not yet happened: all the designs are very reliable.

4. The controversial road

Karakorum highway, although it is laid on the ground, in many of its plots it is immersed in the clouds. This most high-altitude track in the world passes from the city of Abbottabad in Pakistan to the Chinese city of Kashgar and is considered one of the most dangerous roads of the planet.

Karakorum highway repeats the Great Silk Road of Antiquity. From above, there are beautiful, unique views of the beauty, but travelers wave a lot of dangers in the form of rains, landslides, storms, winds, snowy drifts, dawns and mountainous disease. 20 kilometers on average account for only 30-40 meters of asphalt. But even more unpleasant - this road runs between the areas of Jammu and Kashmir, that is, territories that are more than 60 years causes of fierce disputes between India and Pakistan. The area of \u200b\u200bborder conflicts, where, in addition to harsh nature, the power of power and weapons reigns - this is what the Karakorum highway is. Nevertheless, desperate cyclists and bikers love to travel along it.

5. Ruthless road

The name of this route cut down in the cliffs of Tajan Chinese province Golian - "Road, not forgiving errors."

Residents of the local village built it in 1997 to get the opportunity to get to the "big land" from their transcendental heights.

The highway is 1200 meters of tunnel in Mount 15 feet height and 12 feet wide. There are 30 windows, it may be, so that the claustrophips can calm the nerves, looking out and admiring the spacious abyss below.

Really very beautiful. Locals overcome the road, mostly on bicycles. But cars often flew from her into a break. After all, it is a road that does not forgive mistakes.

6. Road without insurance

In the second half of the 19th century, this road was built in New Zealand, so that local miners get access to the golden canyon. At the same time, the road is called for some reason expensive captains - Skippers Road.

Now, to move through it, drivers should get permission. But the majority of insurance companies warn that they cover losses of such risk lovers, in which case, will not.

Nevertheless, tourists-extremals from the nearby town of Queenstown adore day travel along this dangerous road. Very beautiful there. And then, listen: passed the dear captains. Without insurance. Sounds proudly!

7. Desert road

Luxor Hurghada is a famous tourist route in Egypt, connecting recreation areas along the coast of the Red Sea with the ancient city of Pharaoh, Luxor. The highway is 280 km long with a good and smooth road surface, the path on it takes only 4-5 hours.

Nevertheless, on this road, many people died. The thing is that they go here, mostly at night, avoiding the scorching daytime wilderness. When drivers rushing along the highway with the headlights off, they often, without seeing each other in the pillars of dust, faced in the frontal.

Why don't they include headlights? The fact is that it is even more dangerous to ride on this road with the headlights. Terrorists, robbers, all sorts of robbers fly to this light like moths. The consequences are sad. In 1997, the Fanatics Islamists shot 62 German tourists here.

8. The longer - the killer

According to the Guinness Book of Records, Pan American Highway is the longest automotive route in the world. It begins on Alaska, in North America, and ends in the most southern regions of South America.

A portion of the road passing through Costa Rica is the most bloody segment of this route.

The picturesque route leads through the tropical forests, wild places, almost untouched by civilization. Beautiful, but repair work is carried out here too rarely. So some sites of the Pan American route simply flushes during the rainy season. And after flooding here at any time of the year, landslides can happen.

So the road is full of surprises, but some of them are fatal.

9. Ice road

Canadian towns of Inuvik and Touratoyak are located on the very north of Canada. They are so removed from the "Big Earth" that there are no roads, except for the winter on the ice of the McCenzi River, does not exist in the local places.

Each winter road services perform measurements of ice thickness and allow or prohibit the movement. They are also cleaning the road and save the unfortunate, who pleased in the blizzard - storms in this region of Canada Covarna, always fly suddenly.

There is also a constant danger to run out not the crack in ice or get into the snow skid. Canadians and Americans consider the icy road of Tukoutaak extreme. Of course, in Russia, winterers - the case is familiar, almost in every village they are used.

10. Scottle road

Channing Stock Route in Australia - and in fact the former route by which the herdes were chased the first white settlers.

This is one of the most distant roads from the civilization in the world. Go through it - it is very difficult, because it crosses 1850 km of absolutely deserted desert. To overcome this road, it will take at least a month of time, a technically impeccable car, as well as spare parts and ability to repair any breakdowns with your own hands, solid water supply, provisions and fuel. Although something can be bought from aborigines, one or two communities still live in this wilderness.

But, of course, there is no confidence that they will find exactly what you need. Or that none of them will be a cannibal.

11. Trolley road

The Norwegian mountain route began to build at the end of the 19th century, but ended only in 1936.

This is the most fabulous road in the world, so it leads travelers on the mountain "Troll Cap", through the town of Troll's hut and "Troll Church".

On a winding road 11 loops, the width of the road canvase does not exceed three meters. Cars ride along this path only in spring and summer. The rest of the year is too dangerous.

To overcome this difficult road, visitors often hire drivers from among the local residents: they are in all these wild trolls, look better.

12. Understanding road

Once upon a time this terrain was the border between Italy and Austria-Hungary. As they say, both yours and our. Maybe therefore the road through Prato's pass in the local mountains turned out so ... sober.

The trip is able to pretty nerves pretty, especially if you enter the cloud at the top, and slightly below get under the ice rain. It was not in vain such a capricious road called Stelvio Pass - "Queen Zigzag."

You can ride on it on cars from June to September. In winter it is a route for Sunny Sports. Again: And our, and yours, two in one. But at least in something now there is a certainty: the road is recognized by the territory of Italy.

13. Road to Nowhere

American autotrass in New Mexico, not far from Albuquerque, locals are called "dear to nowhere." She leads to the San Mateo mining massif and ends there. Tourists liked to ride her to admire the views. However, since 2000, 17 people disappeared on this road. And these are only confirmed official data.

On the road there is no turns and branches and, in theory, going to her anywhere. Nevertheless, the road as if he swallows careless drivers, and sometimes whole families. People seem to dissolve in the air. The state police and tourism management not so long ago the existence of the riddle of this land Bermuda triangle. Reveal the secret of the road to anywhere and civil servants, and private enthusiasts, and all sorts of psychics. And yet, until this afternoon, it was not possible to anyone.

In conclusion, I would like to recall: we have everything in Russia in Russia. And terrible roads are just like dirt. True, the glass did not acquire - the climate does not allow.

Most cunning routes are in the mountains, where there is a risk not only to break into the abyss, but also become a victim of the collapse. We offer you top deadly roads.

Planning a trip from the point "A" to the item "B", each driver carefully chooses the safest and most quality route. The road is the most popular link connecting countries, cities, various settlements. They are different: wide, narrow, straight and winding. And there are such roads that in the usual understanding of this word and "dear" to call it difficult.

1. Bolivia - Death Road



The first place in the ranking of the most dangerous roads of the world is occupied by the Soviet Highway of the Jungas in Bolivia, which annually takes more than one hundred lives. Her, rightly, is called "dear death." On a plot of about 70 km long, connecting La Paz and Koroiko, more than 25 cars are divided annually and the 100-200 people die. It is an extremely narrow, winding road with steep slopes and slippery coating. Because of the tropical rains, there are often landslides, and thick fogs significantly reduce visibility. The worst accident in the history of Bolivia happened on July 24, 1983. Then the bus fell into the canyon, in which there were more than 100 people. However, this is almost the only way connecting the Northern Bolivia with the capital, so its operation does not stop today. Since the early 1990s, the "road of death" became the place of tourist pilgrimage among foreigners. In December 1999, a car with eight tourists from Israel fell into the abyss. But it does not stop the lovers of "talk to nerves".

And the point here is that this road passes along the picturesque tropical forests of the country and construction works are not being conducted there.

6. France - Passage du Gua



Not only alpine roads can be unsafe and threatening human life. Automotive track Passage de Gua in France with a length of 4.5 km is impressive and frightened at the same time.

8. Mexico - Devil Range



In the Mexican state of Durango, there is a road known as the "Devil Range". This mountain pass for a long time remained the only binding link between the cities of Durango and Mazatlan.

And all this so that ships can swim under the road-bridge.

What roads are considered the most terrible and terrible in the world. Consider the top 10 of the most terrible railways. Video on which terrible roads are represented.

Humanity has mastered the earth for a long time. It paved the roads in the most unthinkable and terrible places. However, here the nature played a cruel joke with people.

Another railway takes place in Colorado. Passengers of the train are forced to pass the damn bridge, being at the height of the nine-story house. The latter holds on the piles, seemingly sluggish. Fortunately, there is no need for permanent operation of this structure, only from tourist purposes are used by this section of the road.

The worst and terrible roads in the world: Top-10

In Nepal there is a car canvas, thanks to which about fifty people say goodbye to life annually. In fact, it is just a small strip of the Earth, passing along the border with a break. Its width does not allow you to easily disperse even motorcycles, not to mention the complexity of movement on cars. At the moment, during almost the year, the authorities prohibit the use of this expensive.
High mortality in this area is due to the number of landslides and the absence of any insurance, because the road does not even have fencing.
Unfortunately, people are forced to use this expensive, as it connects a lot of villages with each other.

dangerous road in Nepal

In New Zealand there is another mountain road. She is very narrow, in addition, the movement complicates the stonepads and, in the cold season, snow. The authorities prohibit the use of this web to everyone who does not have proper goal permission. This is due to a huge amount of steep descents.

Sichuan-Tibetan highway

It goes from the Hunza Valley to the border of China and Pakistan. It is famous for the fact that only during the construction took almost a thousand lives of workers. Some died, falling into the gorge. Others were randomly undermined by explosives. In addition, there are landslides. The length of this highway reaches thousands of three hundred kilometers. In the tenth year of this century, a landslide has occurred, overlapping the movement of the river.

Because of this event, the track plunged into twenty kilometers water. Ferries and cargo are now built through the water surface. In addition, the authorities contributed to the creation of a workaround and now the lake can be driven by using the network of tunnels. All their length reaches five kilometers. The movement is complicated by the similarity of glaciers and landslides, which from time to time overlap the entrances to the tunnels. But with them quickly copes the technique that serves the route.

An article about the 10 most dangerous roads of the world. Interesting facts about killer roads. At the end of the article - an interesting video about dangerous roads in different parts of the planet.


The content of the article:

Russian roads have long been a reason for constant ridicule and claims about their quality and travel. In part, these claims are justified that the increased risks and danger takes place. But our roads seem exemplary compared to those that we will present in this ranking. We specifically selected ten most complex and dangerous roads, which annually take the lives of dozens of people, and the passage on them compare the pilot.

Dangerous Road Rating


The informal name of this transport artery is the "death road". The length of the most dangerous area is about 70 km, which annually dies from 100 to 200 people and approximately 25 cars are broken.

There is still no reliable information about who built it. According to one of the versions, these works were carried out at the end of the 30s of the last century prisoners, on the other - the American construction company in the 70s. In addition, the complexity of the route is also due to the fact that the road connects settlements located at 3.6 km and 330 m above sea level, which only adds problems on a narrow and winding path.

A huge number of victims are also due to the fact that the main transport on this road is trucks and buses, and its width is such that it is impossible to disperse the oncoming streams in most cases, it is necessary to survive travel in small natural "pockets" and negotiate with drivers about priority.

By the way, the motor vehicle, moving uphill, should take the inner side of the pass, and the descending is the external slope.


The road received its frightening name only in 1999, when a bus with tourists crashed on it, but, despite this, exploitation, due to the lack of a full replacement, was not discontinued. Moreover, this object has already become a local attraction and attracts a lot of tourists.


This is the second long-distance motorway in Brazil, some of which has the name of the "Death Highway", since it is laid along the sheer rocks and cliffs, and also has many narrow tunnels.

Naturally, the arrangement and organization of road traffic are far from the highest level, in view of which the driver should comply with the maximum precautions.
