As one who has driven the eyre highway ( Nullarbor Plain ) numerous times, let me correct the narrator when he says.. there are not many places to stop. Fuel stations are available ( roughly ) every 2 hours of travel, in a family car. Rest areas for overnight camping are also frequently scattered along the highway. Some have toilet facilities, fuel, stores, motels.. etc. And yes, it can take 3 DAYS to cross the Nullarbor, but I've always enjoyed seeing the wide, brown, dry, dusty and hot locale. Hubby and myself woke up one morning in our lil campervan at 5.45am. We were on the road by 6.30 am. I drove solidly until 5.30pm... and WE WERE STILL ON THE EYRE HIGHWAY.. l o l. Australia is a huge country, if you visit, do not underestimate the conditions and roads. Stay safe.

The road to Ladakh in the mid 1970s. Unforgettable. Enormous drops, no rails, constant landslides. Could see vehicles down at the bottom of ravines. No chance anyone would ever come to rescue/help if your car went off. Families of locals would appear to patch the road up after almost every car. Trip took 2 days. Then had to come back.

Wow! This is awesome! Thanks for sharing this with us! What beautiful sights!

I don’t know his name, but the narrator of the videos (including this one) on this channel is hands down one of my favorites of any on KZfaq. Speaks clearly, not too fast or slow, and is able to inject a slight bit of humor without going overboard with it. You help to make all of your videos pleasant and enjoyable, as well as being informative. Thank you, sir, for the work you do here. - Robert Brown

A lot of people are saying that the musical highway east of Albuquerque is no longer there. Don't worry, as of yesterday it was STILL there. But the signs saying where it is are now gone, the rumble strips are only 18" wide and easy to miss and due to age, the tune has mellowed out some. But it's STILL there

Wow ! So Amazing ! Thanks for the information, new knowledge !

That was fascinating. I made some notes so I can remember to travel these interesting roads some day. Too bad I was in the italian Alps last year -- should have checked out Stelvio Pass. Maybe next time.

As an Aussie I'm proud we got two entries into this list!. Scary roads magnificent views .

I have never seen these roads before thank you plus I love your voice

Some odd choices. The Dempster Highway is longer than the Dalton (737.5km vs 666.3), and has less services on it. It is one of the world's great drives, going from near Dawson Ciity, Yukon, to Tuktoyaktuk NWT. It has ice bridges in winter. There is an ice bridge across the Yukon River at Dawson City that is rated to 50,000kg, Fuel trucks can drive over it! In the shoulder seasons, the weight limit drops.

Can’t believe you showed the musical highway but didn’t let the video sound show us what it sounds like!

That Yungas Road is giving me anxiety just watching the video. Terrifying. Great video, thanks.

Scary 😨 roads magnificent views 👌

Just wanted to let you know. . . Americans do not hate rules. We hate the double standard. “Justice for me but not for thee.” Yeah, we hate that.

I drove the Karakoram Highway in 1988, we did it with a simple 3 cilinder Japanese car and went all the way to the Chinese border without a fuss. We saw the Nanga Parbat, the Rakaposhi and many fabulous scenery. And yes, lot of parts had landslides and on some parts small rocks hit the car, but it still is a memory which I will never forget.

There is a road called the Going To The Sun highway, in Glacier National Park in Montana(U.S.) that is similar to these roads. It is closed in winter because of snow depth. Like these roads, the scenery is beautiful, but the switch backs and drop offs are demanding. That road in Australia is also the flattest road in the world. It is so flat that you can see the curvature of the world. If you could stretch a string from one end to the other end, one inch at each end off the road, it would be one inch every where, but the middle of the length of the road, because the world is round would actually be "higher" than each end.

You tell and tell and tell about an amazing musical highway, but we don't hear a single second of that sound here.

These roads are very scary and dangerous to me. I will not like to be near these roads. Thank so much for these videos and education

We have the same thing in Lancaster CA. It known as the musical highway & was originally build for I think it was a Honda commercial, but its very cool hearing your tires play music driving down the road.

I drove the Dalton Highway solo back in 2016. It was a GREAT trip! I wish I could do it again, but it probably won't happen. Seeing the midnight sun in late June was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. But don't tackle it without some serious planning!

That Guoliang tunnel is absolutely insane that 13 people made it only in 5 years without proper equipment.. Insane...

AWESOME VIDEO TOP FIVE

I’m so impressed !

As a bid to combat fatigue along the Eyre Highway Australia, they have constructed a 18-hole par 72 golf course stretched along its length to encourage people to have a break as they travel. It's the world's longest golf course.

I can recall reading about the Siberian gulags, filled as they were 65% or more with Ukrainians during the 20th century. One recollection in regards to the 'road of bones' or similar, is about a story in one of the gulags, about how, during a spring thaw, a whole hillside uncovered huge number of corpses of zeks, gulag inmates. Their conditions of work and of living, were, according to accounts of survivors, and they do exist, survivors and written accounts, were very dismal. I have worked in Australia, in remote construction camps, on oil rigs and a bit in mining. In those places in Australia, heated and cooled cabin were used, the food served was very good, as much as you could eat, laundry, washing, toilet facilities were good, and all of those things were free, with a wage thrown in, quite often a better than usual wage. Very unlike to what I have been reading from eyewitnesses of the Russian gulags, the ones that survived their unjustified 10 or 20 year slave labour stretch in Siberia. In the Komi region of Siberia, if a zek(gulag inmate) escaped, any settlers in those region or regions was financially rewarded for shooting an escapee. An escapee would be hard pressed to escape anyway, from way up there. Also, I read that there was at a time an uprising by the zeks, sticks against guns, and the zeks were apparently shot.

Alaska has the LOWEST population DENSITY, but it is NOT the least populated. Both Vermont and Wyoming have lower populations.

This video was quite a journey

You spoke of the Transfagarasean Highway in Romania...how come it's not on this list?

It was very good to see the videos about many scary roads

These roads are mesmerising! Wow 😮

We have 2 floating bridges in Seattle spanning Lake Washington; the I-90 bridge and the State Route 520 bridge. At one point, due to some mismanaged maintenance, the I-90 bridge sank during a storm. the SR 520 bridge has been expanded and the work to complete the western end of the expansion is currently under way.

North youngest road reminds me of road from Hunza to Naran. It climbs to the highest point in Pakistan, temperature 0⁰c Babusar top, n descends suddenly to the hottest n driest point Chillas temperature 41⁰c. N yes Atabad lake is one of the wonders of the world, n so is the Atabad road. Indeed it's not for the faint of hearts. The highest border in the world lies here in kurakoram highway, called Khunjarab pass. Love from Pakistan.😊

Every now and then I can detect the same tone and timbre of voice as the narrator for “Dear Kitten”. 👍😉

The Washington State bridge referred to is the Evergreen Point Floating Bridge, not the Evergreen Floating Point Bridge. Floating Point is a term related to mathematical computer calculations (as opposed to integer-based calculations. Evergreen Point is the name of a small peninsula on the east side of Lake Washington, which is where the east end of the bridge is located. In very windy weather with high wave action on the lake, you can feel the bridge deck rising and falling, but the period of the wave is fairly long, on the order of 5 to 10 seconds.

Nice 😊😊😊

Narrated by Charlie Sheen

I live in Albuquerque and we really love driving over the musical highway.

Interesting video👍

We are going to The Lapland and Norway on Summer's July and IT would Be nice to try that trollstigen Road But I'll think father dont Want drive that Road...

There are TWO floating bridges crossing Lake Washington near Seattle, not one.

Most informative vidios thank so much.

Kim’s going up, Keke’s going down at the same time, when they meet, who shifts to reverse?! 😮

I wouldn't drive on them. But I found this interesting

I was a bit sad that you didn't play just a little of the highway tune xxxx

some parts of Norway should be on this list.

If you like driving. I highly recommend the Stelvio pass. It's an amazing road to drive and quite fun.

The section of Highway 99 known as the Duffy Lake Road between Lillooet and Pemberton, British Columbia should be on this list, too!

No chance of me going across the ice road haha

Eyre highway reminds me of the trip from El Paso to Houston Texas. My memories may be skewed by the fact it was a July with an un-airconditioned car, but it totally felt a long, flat, hot, boring eternity.

My vote for the most horrific is the Guoliang Tunnel, followed by - close second- Yungas Road.

As an Aussie I'm proud we got two entries into this list!🙃

Highest road in use in the world is Uturuncu in southern Bolivia, 5730 m or 18.799 feet high. Regarding Khardung LA, the signs at the top are claiming that this is the highest road in the world, but, unfortunately, the sign exaggerates the height by some 800 feet and even if it was as high as it claims, Uturuncu in Bolivia would still be higher by a small margin. Unfortunately, despite lots of misinformation, the Protected Area Pass does not allow access to Khardung La as it is one of the excluded areas in Kashmir. If you are an Indian citizen and resident, you can go up there with an ILP permit, but to the majority of the world, the pass is out of bounds.

Fascinating.

Stelvio Pass- much adored by fans of Top Gear!

That Kolyma road in Siberia O have heard about. Apparently, those 'political' prisoners were mostly people from behind the iron curtain who dared to have nationalistic sentiments, other than Russian sentiments. In other words, they were mostly innocents, or ever better than innocents because they were brave enough to voice their own nationalistic adherences. Incidentally, 60 to 80% of people in the gulags were Ukrainians, sent, as other were, to be denationalised from their individual nationalities, and to help develop Siberia by the use of slave labour. Apparently, they had a daily quota of work to fulfill, and if they failed, their daily food rations were halved or reduced. Over time this lead to premature death. A Russian or Soviet luminary convinced Stalin that if a zek, in inmate of a gulag camp survived for 3 months, and new inmates were brought in, the whole gulag system would be viable. Stalin agreed with the idea forwarded by one Frenkel. Kolyma had, or has, large gold reserves, and the temperature goes down to -70°Celsius. USA vice president went there during WW2. All regions where the zeks were werecraftily hidden, and after the war Wallace, the vicepresident agreed that he had been duped. Another bit of info is that one reads that people were transported to the gulags in cattletrucks having an open toilet in the middle of a carriage. One reads also, that after a trip of several days to Siberia, when a carriages, wagons, doors were opened, often a few dead bodies tumbled out, just from the trip. Another piece of info worth knowing is that, when Ukrainians were forcibly sent to Siberia to the gulags, their vacated abodes were resettled by Russians brought from the north to colonise Ukraine, denationalise it, with the original inhabitants, Ukes, having been sent to woop-woop in Siberia. Crafty Muscovy politics, eh.! And that is not all! 80 or 90 years ago the resettlements tookplace in this story, and now, in Ukraine, those buggers from Russia resettled in Ukraine, their kids and grandkids, who are the present day 'separatists' in Ukraine, are clamouring to have their resettled areas of Ukraine, joined to Russia. They even called in some agitators from Russia, in order to forward their claims, and these actions, and others have led to the invasion of Ukraine in 2014 and in February 2022 and to now, July, 2023. Rotten Russian politics, now transparently known beyond any facade. I have noticed that several Ukrainian refugees from 2022, who have come to Australia are speaking in Russian, not in their native Ukrainian language, and when queried about this they reply that in eastern Ukraine, there used to be 10 Russian schools to 1 Ukrainian, and if you wanted to get ahead in life, you went with the flow, so to speak. However, in newer times, apparently the story is that, in most of Ukraine, Ukrainian is being reintroduced, after many years of being somewhat neglected as part of Russia's former denationalisation program. During the 20th century, they event had a catchcry for nationalities other than theirs, the rotten buggers that they were and are. The term was' bougeouis nationalism'. In other words, no nationalism other than their rotten Muscovite one. Go figure?!

People have built incredible things, however until I grow my wings, nope

Umling La is the highest motorable road in world situated in Ladakh.

You should check Me Pin pass in Cao Bang, Vietnam. It’s about 2 miles with 14 hairpins. Stunningly beautiful.

Done the Eyre Highway multiple times. The servos are specifically spaced so you'll get between them on an average tank of fuel. Have also driven even more remote, dusty dirt roads in Australia's north.

I live on Storsjön and use the ice roads going to town or the mountains. There are 3 of them. One, the longest, crossing the lake south of where I live. Mainland to mainland. One from the mainland to the island I live on. Making it possible to go to the town of Östersund. One going in the opposite direction, towards the mountains.

The floating bridge in Washington is the evergreen point floating bridge not the floating point bridge and it’s only one of 4 in the state

Le col du Stevio, nous l'avons fait il y a des années pendant le mois de septembre et quand nous somme repassés, il y avait tant de neige, des murs de neige mais ce n'est absolument pas une route difficile

Trollstigen looks to be wide, well paved and has crash barriers. I hate mountain roads but that looks fine.

I live next to a theme park/amusement Park that has a small lake with a pontoon bridge across, its weird to walk across

Hi! Which road is shown in the video thumbnail? I suspect it’s part of one of the roads shown but I can’t tell which. Thanks!

Wyoming is the least populated state, but Alaska is the least dense.

Seasick...carsick...it's all motion sickness. How well I know.

It is as if an infinite swarm of black ants passes the Stelvio Pass at 9.00, LOL

Should see squal peak trail as used to be called. Hairpin turns galore!

Que hermoso puente

Well done...

3:19 .. Wait .. wombats, check, kangaroos, check, and ... camels???? WTF? Are they marsupial camels? LOL

Wow,never in my heart😮😂

Stelvio Pass will always remind me of The Italian Job

There's a NICE ROAD in the South of Brfasil state of St CAtarina, its called SERRA DO RIO DO RASTRO, its such a nice road to drive up and down after lunch or coffee in the top !!!

Thanks,

Does Australia, besides the known single hump camels, also have two hump ones as shown in the video?

wow!

Australia has Boab trees too!

You missed the Dempster Highway to Inuvik, Canada. Also the Mackenzie River Ice Road North of Inuvik.

Daredevils is the right term, although it's different when your riding a curve or narrow road than when you're actually watching.. Somewhat scary! #2023 ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

Watching from philippines

The ice roads. Not scary to drive over. I do it daily

Madagascars Road seems neat.

Disappointed that the musical roads segment did not include the actual sound.

Ever been on a logging road in British Columbia?

Have you driven any of these roads before? Let us know in the comments!

Certainly not complaining about the order or the contenders as they are all epic, however there are some crazy motorbike only rides and also there is a four lane hwy through the mountains across central Northern Thailand that no one seems to know about. It runs through Nam Nao National Park. Didnt see one cop along there and it flows beautifully.

There is a bridge in North Muskegon Michigan, usa called the float bridge…..im assuming because it is or was a floating bridge at one time…its about 1/8 mile long…..hmmm

Trollstigen have i drive 2times,It was ok👍🙂

Guoliang tunnel is the most amazing one.

Sweden have another road that goes over a mountaintop that is only open from 6 of june to maby september october every year the rest of the year the road is closed due to snow up to 400cm thick.

Vermont as one that crosses a large body of water.

YAY SO COOL

Can't see how Jacobs ladder is that bad I walked up it one time in my younger fitter days lol😊l

I've lived in Australia for nearly sixty years and I've never heard of Jacob's Ladder. I have to hear about it from someone who doesn't even live in the country? That's cruel.

You need to remake this as many of the roads mentioned have changed a lot as of 2023.

Why isn't the road that is pictured, featured or even shown in the video?

Trollstigen is not the worst in Norway and neither does it take 2 hours to drive. More like 10 minutes if you don't meet too much traffic. Where does this information come from btw??

WOW
