Here I am in the mountains of Peru riding the Peruvian version of what they call the Road of Death. This road is qualified as on of many MOST DANGEROUS ROADS in the world. (https://www.dangerousroads.org/south-...)

I rode this and about 50-60 miles it turned to dirt for another 4-5 days when I said to myself.....self....time to find pavement road to give the Harley a break LOL!

Had an awesome time enjoy the video and the info below:

Narrow high mountain dirt road with a total length of 45km, between the village of Yuracmarca and the Calipuy National Reservation, in Peru, going along a path hew out of sheer rock, over a precipitous gorge and passes through 50 unlit tunnels, hand-cut through solid stone.

The road is extreme, with 50 one-lane tunnels. It crosses the infamous Cañón del Pato (Spanish: Duck Canyon), on the Rio Santa (Santa River) at the north end of the Callejón de Huaylas (Corridor of Huaylas) in north-central Peru.

This road is very exciting and sometimes very exposed and unsecured driveway in innumerable twists and turns. The total route involves over 50 tunnels, most of which are one lane and rough cut through the mountainside. The road rises from 500m to over 2000m. The road gets narrower and narrower with a succession of one lane tunnels. The road continues up to Ruta 3N and becomes one of the most dangerous roads in the world.
