A website - which searches for the world's most dangerous routes - chose the D915 Bayburt Road as their number one.

The Bayburt D915 Road is 66 miles long with 29 hairpin bends.

Located in the foothills of the 6,000-foot-high Soganli Mountain, it is described as a difficult route where 'you cannot turn at some of the bends in a single manoeuvre; this road was built by Russian soldiers in 1916'.

There are no railings at the road's edge to prevent vehicles from plunging to their doom in an accident.
Parts of the road are routinely closed in wintertime due to snow blizzards and ice.

Website dangerousroads.org, who conduced the research, said: 'Words and pictures are not enough to tell how dangerous this road is.'

After the Turkish route, India's Keylong-Kishtwar Road was found to be the next most dangerous.

Vehicles are constantly twisted along this high mountain trail, which is 144 miles long.
It’s a mind numbing vertical drop of hundreds of feet so you might want to give it a miss on a windy day.

New Zealand's La piste de l'Amitie took third place, with its sharply winding bends and precipitous ascent.
