Here is a list of the most fascinating and dangerous locations in the globe. If you want to add a little danger to your holiday, these are the places to visit. If not, avoid at any cost!
#1 North Yungas also Known as “Death Road”
North Yungas Road is nicknamed “Death Road” for all the reasons you might imagine. Driving up or down this 43-mile (69-kilometer) switchback is extremely hazardous due to fog, landslides, falls, and cliffs that drop 2,000 feet (610 meters) at every bend.
#2 Ilha da Queimada Grande (Snake Island)
Due to its huge population of poisonous snakes, Ilha da Queimada Grande has been labeled “one of the world’s most dangerous islands.” This may be the most terrifying place you’ve ever been if you have ophidiophobia (the fear of snakes).
#3 Lake Natron – The Most Uninhabitable Areas On Earth
Lake Natron’s water is highly saline, can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit, and has a pH between 9 and 10.5; it is caustic enough to calcify bones, erase ink from printed materials, and burn the skin and eyes of non-adapted animals.
#4 Alpine Refuge, Located at 2760 meters in Monte Cristallo, Italy
In the Italian Dolomites, Monte Cristallo is a long, concave ridge with four summits exceeding 3,000 meters. During World War I, the mountain range that is today part of the “Natural Park of the Ampezzo Dolomites” was the location of heavy battle between Italy and Austria-Hungary.
The opposing armies utilized immense artillery, dug tunnels beneath each other’s walls, and blasted mountain peaks, producing avalanches that killed hundreds. Today, you can traverse the rock galleries they excavated. It is both incredible and frightening.
#5 De ath Valley on the California and Nevada border with extreme heat
De ath Valley’s summer temperatures are influenced by its depth and form. The valley is a long, narrow depression that is 282 feet (86 meters) below sea level and is surrounded by high, steep mountain ranges.
Extremely high temperatures are created as these moving masses of superheated air pass through the valley.
#6 Skeleton Coast spread across south of Angola to the north of Namibia
Due to its harsh climate, the skeleton coast is regarded as one of the “worst places on earth,” where survival is nearly impossible.
In addition to the harsh climate, the region is covered in animal bones (whales, elephants, turtles, seals, etc.), giving it a sour appearance.
#7 Danakil Desert – A Volcanically Active Area
In the Afar Triangle, the Desert of Danakil comprises 136,956 square kilometers (52,879 square miles) of dry ground. A few Afar live there and work in the salt mines.
The region is known for its volcanoes and extreme temperatures, which top 50 degrees Celsius everyday (122 degrees Fahrenheit)
#8 The Turkmenistan Darvaza Gas Crater (Gates of Hell)
The Turkmenistan Darvaza Gas Crater is an underground field of natural gas. Since 1971, when geologists set it ablaze to halt the spread of methane gas, it has continuously burning.
It located 260 kilometers north of Turkmenistan’s capital, Ashgabat, in the midst of the Karakum Desert, near the town of Derweze.
#9 North Sentinel Island
North Sentinel Island is located in the Andaman Islands and is one of the world’s most dangerous tourist attractions. The villagers have been living in an archaic manner, refusing all forms of contact with the outside world.
The native inhabitants of this island are unfamiliar with strangers, and when visitors arrive, they view them as a threat and react to violence. This is one of the most peculiar islands on Earth.
#10 Madidi National Park – A Jungle Paradise
Due to the prevalence of predators in Madidi forest, solo travelers are strongly discouraged from entering the park. The forest is one of the world’s largest protected areas because it contains some of the most dangerous animals, birds, and plants, earning it a spot on the list of the most dangerous places to visit.
