Stuck in a bubble of boredom and need some escapist relief? Join us on a tour of some of the most remote locales on Planet Earth.

10. Oodaaq Island: only visible under favorable conditions. Greenland. Oodaaq completely vanished two years after its discovery due to melting water flooding.

9. Brasil. Vale do Javari the most isolated place on Earth. The region is home to at least 14 of the amazon’s uncontacted tribes.

8. The Pacific Ocean. The Mariana Trench: the deepest place on the Planet. Only three people have ever descended to its deepest point, the Challenger Deep.

7. Chile. Northern Patagonia: home of Chile’s wildest landscapes. Its Ice Field remains one of the largest masses of ice outside the polar regions.

6. Bhutan. Gangkhar Puensum: The highest unclimbed mountain. With its severe weather and inaccurate maps, the mountain may stay unclimbed forever.

5. Russia. Kamchatka: A peninsula of over 300 volcanos. One of the volcanos has been erupting continuously since 1996.

4. Namibia. Namib: The oldest dessert. The home to the world’s highest sand dunes, some of which can be seen from space.

3. Nepal. Machapuchare: The last pristine mountain in the Himalayas. The Nepalese believe it is the home of the Lord Shiva and therefore strictly prohibit any attempt of climbing to the summit.

2. Madagascar. Tsingu de Bemaraha National Park: the stone forest. This bio-fortress in nearly impenetrable due to its huge limestone formation.

1. Antarctica. Subglacial lakes: Hidden under the Antarctic ice. Some of the 379 lakes have been covered with ice for 35 million years.
