The highway running through the dried Salar de Uyuni is located at an altitude
of 3,650 m (11,811 ft) above sea level. Local landscapes are so unusual that it’s
easy to get lost in them, and cell phones here are mostly useless. Even though it’s
safe to go here with a tour group, it’s better to avoid going on your own, especially
since at night the temperature falls to −30°C (-22°F).
[12] Road through Skippers Canyon, New Zealand
Numerous holes and cliffs, steep descents, sudden bends, suspension
bridges, and narrowings of the road are far from all the surprises
lurking on the crossing through Skippers Canyon. Local car
rental agencies don’t even provide insurance for those who are
going to conquer this route.
