What are the most spectacular roads in Russia?

Spread across the vast expanse of Eastern Europe and Northern Asia, Russia is the largest country in the world. With such a large area, the country has 100 roads listed as the most spectacular roads and it is home to extreme driving adventures as well. The treacherous Kolyma Highway is Russia's Road of Bones adventure. It is an exciting trip from Yakutsk to Magadan. It was built by prisoners using hand tools in the 1930s, marking one of the most terrifying chapters in Soviet history. It’s also worth taking the drive through BAM Road, a 4.300 km of off-road route through Siberia. It is one of the toughest adventure roads remaining on this planet. This track runs roughly alongside a railway track in extreme Siberia.

The Trans-Siberian Highway spans 6,800 miles from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok, from the Baltic Sea to the Atlantic Ocean to the Japan Sea to the Pacific Ocean. It’s one of the longest roads in the world. And an epic frozen drive to Anabar is a true Russian adventure leading to Anabar Bay, on the Laptev Sea. It's one of the world's northernmost roads.
If you prefer spooky drives, don’t forget the terrifying Vitim River Bridge in Siberia. It’s an old train bridge crossing the Vitim River, with its old metal structure covered with rotting wooden planks.
It is one of the most spectacular bridges in the world. It’s also worth mentioning the road to Lake Karachay, the most polluted place on Earth. It is considered one of the most polluted bodies of water on Earth, with its waters capable of killing a human within 30 minutes.

For high mountain road lovers, Gara-Bashi station (Mount Elbrus) is a ski lift at 3.883m (12,739ft) above sea level. It's one of the highest roads in Europe.
