The North Yungas Road (also Grove’s road, Coroico road, Camino de
las Yungas, El Camino de la Muerte, road of Death, and Death road) is a
61 to 69 km road (depending on source) leading from La Paz to Coroico,
56 km (35 miles) northeast of La Paz in the Yungas region of Bolivia.
It is legendary for its extreme danger and in 1995 the
Inter-American Developement Bank christened it as the “world’s most
dangerous road”.
One estimate is that 200-300 travellers were killed yearly along
the road. The road includes crosses marking many of the spots where such
vehicles have fallen.
Upon leaving La Paz, the road first ascends up to around 5 km,
before descending to 330 m (1079 ft), transiting quickly from cool
altiplano terrain to rain forest as it winds through very steep
hillsides and atop cliffs.
