Roads for the Adrenalin Junky (Part 2)

 

In our previous blog post you’ve raced across the Passage du Gois in France, you’ve survived the treacherous trek across the Bolivian North Yungas road and now you’re searching for your next adrenalin pumping road to explore. Don’t fret, we’ve got you covered. As Range Rovers breakers we’re able to provide your precious vehicle with all the spare parts it needs to function properly on your off-road adventure! Not only that, but we’ve also got a few more roads you can test your driving skills on.

 

Stevio Pass- Italy

At a glance, this may seem like a calm, cool road to weave your way down, but it’s not. The Stevio Pass is a treacherous track of a single, narrow twisting road down an almost vertical drop.  Stretching 2.7 km high, the road holds the title of the highest paved road in the Eastern Alps and, whilst a fun road for bikers to ride down, it’s a white knuckle ride for motorists!

Take care on those sharp corners and whatever you do guys, don’t look down!

 


 
Commonwealth Avenue- Philippines

You may not expect to find a rush of adrenalin on this highway but think again. With vehicles appearing, seemingly out of nowhere this 12.4 km long road in Quezon City spans a staggering 6-18 lanes making it both the widest road in the Philippines, and one of the busiest. When you’re cruising down this monster of a highway, be sure to check, double check and triple check your mirrors constantly, as on this road, vehicles come out of nowhere and wait for nobody!

Once you reach your destination, it might be a good idea to find someplace to sit and collect your nerves!
 


 
Himalayan Roads- The Himalayas

If you’re searching for an adrenalin high we’ve saved one of the best ’till last. The Himalayan Roads are a network of unpaved, perilous narrow paths leading through the Himalayan mountains. Under constant attack from the elements, these unpaved, pothole-riddled roads have, unfortunately, taken many lives.

If it’s not passing oncoming traffic you have to be wary of, it’s keeping a sharp eye out for landslides and flooding. This video, for instance, shows part of one of the unpaved Himalayan Roads flooded from a waterfall located just behind the vehicle!
