2. Yungas Road, Bolivia
Accoring to the Association for Safe International Road Travel, there is somewhere around 100 and 200 fatalities a year on Yungas Road.
Fittingly, locals call this twisty, 40 mile stretch from the capital of La Paz to the town of Coroico in the Yungas wilderness “Dead Road,” and the amount of remembrances and crosses scattered along the vein make it appear to be more like a cemetery than a lane.
Yungas Road is limited –a single path close to 10 feet wide -and it drops in excess of 12,000 feet in height. It’s liable to compelling fog and continuous avalanches, and if that wasn’t sufficient there are no guardrails securing drivers from precipices that plunge straight down.
In 2006, a more secure course between La Paz and Coroico was finished, yet this hasn’t halted compelling bicycle tours from offering enterprise seekers the opportunity to tease dead.
