The world is full of fascinating places that attract tourists in their droves. There is a lot of variety in these destinations, from tropical paradises to mountainous peaks, and they attract people ranging from sunseekers to thrill-seekers.



However, as incredible as some locations can be, they can also be very dangerous. While some of these locations aren’t the worst places to visit, there are underlying reasons why you should proceed with care. Here’s a look at some of the most dangerous tourist destinations on the planet.

Death Valley, USA

Death Valley, USA

If the Earth is our home, then Death Valley is its scorching hot oven. This stunning desert holds the record for the highest temperature recorded on earth — 56 °C. Death Valley is the largest national park in the contiguous United States, as well as the hottest, driest and lowest of all the national parks in the United States.


The Danakil Desert, Eritrea

The Danakil Desert, Eritrea

The Danakil Desert is a desert in northeast Ethiopia, southern Eritrea, and northwestern Djibouti. Situated in the Afar Triangle, it stretches across 136,956 square kilometres of arid terrain. It is inhabited by a few Afar, who engage in salt mining. Baking temperatures that often top 50 degrees C, numerous active volcanoes, geysers that spit toxic gases — it’s hard to imagine a more brutal landscape than Africa’s the Danakil Desert.



Mount Washington, USA

Mount Washington, USA

Mount Washington, in New Hampshire, is the highest peak in the Northeastern United States at 6,288.2 ft and the most topographically prominent mountain east of the Mississippi River. The mountain is notorious for its erratic weather. The summit of Mount Washington holds the world record for the fastest winds on the surface of the Earth. The highest recorded speed here is 327 km/h.


Sinabung Volcano, Indonesia

Sinabung Volcano, Indonesia

Mount Sinabung is a Pleistocene-to-Holocene stratovolcano of andesite and dacite in the Karo plateau of Karo Regency, North Sumatra, Indonesia, 40 kilometres from the Lake Toba supervolcano. This is an active volcano where eruptions occur here very frequently, often leaving thousands of people without shelter or livelihood.

Bikini Atoll, The Marshall Islands

Bikini Atoll, The Marshall Islands

Lost somewhere in the ocean, this island looks like a paradise, doesn’t it? But Bikini Atoll was actually home to numerous nuclear testing programs that turned the picturesque island of Bikini into a radioactive wasteland.



Valley of Death, Kamchatka, Russia

Valley of Death, Kamchatka

The Kamchatka Peninsula, in the Russian Far East, also has its own Death Valley. It’s located not far from the famous Valley of Geysers. A small area on the Kamchatka Peninsula is known as an animal graveyard. Dangerous for people as well, it's closed off to tourists.

Lake Natron, Tanzania

Lake Natron, Tanzania

It may look like an extraterrestrial landscape, but this surreal image is actually the photo of Lake Natron in Tanzania. The alkali salt crust on the surface of the lake is so dangerous that all living creatures die just coming into contact with it.


Half Dome

Half Dome

Half Dome is a granite dome at the eastern end of Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California. It is a well-known rock formation in the park, named for its distinct shape. One side is a sheer face while the other three sides are smooth and round, making it appear like a dome cut in half.
