TOP MOST DANGEROUS ROADS IN THE WORLD | DARE YOU TRY

Hello everyone. Welcome to the ‘FACTS YOU NEED TO KNOW’ Channel. A place to share interesting stories of countries around the world. There are many dangerous roads worldwide, and the following roads have been listed among the most dangerous on the planet. Rated by travel websites.

This is the story of the top 7 most dangerous roads on Earth. First, let’s go to Europe. There is a road located in France, known as Passage du Gois. This road stretches about 4.1 km. It connects the island of Noirmoutier to the mainland. Normally,

It will be submerged under water at a depth of about 1 to 4 meters, and only when the tide recedes will it be exposed. But the time it appears only lasts 1 to 2 hours a day. Because of the effects of the tides, this road time is not used much.

The time when this road appeared, it looked as normal as the others. But Passage du Gois was a very dangerous road. There are special warning signs along both sides of the road to warn visitors about its flooding. Despite this, there are still thousands of adventurous tourists often stuck due to sudden rising tides.

In case people or tourists are crossing road encounter high tide, the authorities here have built rescue towers, so that people can climb while waiting to be saved. After the water retreats, the road remains slippery due to residual seaweed. Currently, around 10,000 people live on Noirmoutier island

And the locals have learned how to cross it safely. The most effective way is that they always pay attention to all warning signs. Interestingly, this road has been part of the famous “Tour de France” bicycle race many times. Number 6, we have Rohtang Pass in India.

Rohtang Pass is translated as ‘Path of the dead’. It refers to the number of people who fell and died when intentionally crossing this pass in bad weather conditions. This pass located at an altitude of 3,978 meters above sea level. Over the centuries, hundreds of people have died on this pass.

It could be an accident or stuck in the middle of the road. Currently, although the infrastructure is more modern and accidents have reduced, but this pass is only open around 4 months a year, from mid-June to mid-October. It’s the best time of year. During other cold months the pass is closed.

This pass is very dangerous, but in return the landscape here is very beautiful. When crossing this pass you can see a lot of scenery from meadows, mountains, rivers and at that altitude the air is very fresh. Nowadays, only the most adventurous people dare to go through this pass.

Because of its importance to traffic. Since 2010, the Indian government initiated the construction of the Rohtang Tunnel. It spans 8.5 km and cost more than $300 million. With the tunnel, there’s no need to traverse the pass anymore. Previously, it took 4 to 6 hours to cross the pass.

Now, it only takes 30 minutes to pass through Rohtang tunnel. Number 5 belongs to Los Caracoles in Chile and Argentina. This road is located in the Andes Mountains at nearly 3,900 meters above sea level. Los Caracoles Road has a lot of traffic every day, but its shape makes many drivers stunned.

This road has many narrow bends especially on the Chilean side. It’s especially dangerous because heavy trucks often have to travel on this road to trade goods between Argentina and Chile. This road has 29 bends, it challenges for drivers. When traveling in winter with snow and ice on the surface,

This road becomes even scarier, even a small mistake can lead to death. In summer, heat affects both vehicles and drivers when they are on the road. With its steep incline, it’s considered one of the most dangerous roads in the world. Number 4 takes us to New Zealand.

A road called Skippers Canyon in New Zealand. Famous for its unique bends and difficult roads, this place is extremely dangerous. This road was created by gold seekers in the 19th century. This road is located close to the mountainside, very narrow and has many bends. This is a famous road with majestic scenery

But also makes drivers’ hearts flutter because of its danger. Skippers Canyon ranks among the top ten most dangerous roads in the world, which adventurers can’t ignore. In the past, there were many bungee jumping spots with dizzying heights, but unfortunately have all been closed. Number 3

Belongs to the James Dalton Highway in Alaska, USA. The official name of this highway is Alaska Highway 11. This road has a total length of 666 km from inland Alaska to near the Arctic Ocean. The worst nightmare of drivers when passing through this highway is the extremely harsh weather conditions here.

Road surfaces are often icy, foggy and blizzards often appear make it one of the most dangerous and coldest roads on the planet. There are only 3 towns along this highway. Due to the weather is often bad so you always have to prepare for the worst situation, always carry warm clothes. At number 2

We have the Karakoram Highway connecting Pakistan and China. Previously, Karakoram was once part of the ancient Silk Road. Currently, this highway continues to play its important role and is considered the 8th wonder of the world. Karakoram Highway is the highest international paved road in the world.

This legendary road is located at an altitude of 4,600 meters above sea level, stretching along the majestic Karakoram mountain range, very rugged and prone to flash floods. This highway was started construction by the Chinese and Pakistani governments in 1959. It took 20 years to completed and used. It span 1,290 km,

It starts in Pakistan connects to the central city of Kashgar in China’s Xinjiang autonomous region. During construction, the Pakistani army even had to use heavy helicopters to transport bulldozers in the first attempts to build this road. But then, due to bad weather conditions, both the plane and the bulldozer fell into the abyss.

After that, the construction process was also extremely harsh. About 1,000 Pakistani and 200 Chinese workers lost their lives when building this road. A lot of effort from many construction workers went into making this road. For those reasons, Karakoram Highway is known as the 8th wonder of humanity.

Top the list is the Guoliang Tunnel in China. Located in the northwest of Henan province in China. Guoliang Tunnel is famous for its dangerous location and difficult construction. Nested in the cliffs of Taihang Mountains, the tunnel is 1.2 km long tall 5 metres and wide 4 metres.

It links Guoliang with the outside world. There are over 30 windows of different shapes and sizes overlooking the gully that were used by the builders to remove rubble from the tunnel, but now allow light into it. Some windows are round and some are square

And they range from dozens of meters long to standard window size. This is the road that don’t allow any mistakes. The road requires monk-like focus to drive. Locals say that even one mistake means big trouble in here. Most accidents in the tunnel are primarily caused by the neglect of the traveller.

The tunnel is only realistically enough for one way traffic. It was built by local residents in the 1970s located high on the mountainside. It’s known as the most remote and dangerous place in China. Guoliang Village is a very remote place. The only way into the village is a tunnel through a cliff

At an altitude of 1700 meters. Before construction, to reach Guoliang village visitors had to climb 720 steep and slippery stone steps at an altitude of 1,700 meters. This path is so dangerous that even experienced indigenous people find it very difficult to move outside. By the 1970s,

Guoliang villagers sent out 13 of the strongest and bravest young men to work on building tunnels through cliffs without any modern machinery. These young men had to use hammers to smash dozens of tons of rock, and after years of continuous work the Guoliang tunnel was completed.
