Year-round
Pereval Sasivordovon is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 3.366m (11,043ft) above the sea level, located in Namangan Region in the southern part of the Fergana Valley in far eastern part of Uzbekistan.
The road to the summit is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. It’s called R-124. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. Your wheels will be astounded at the wonderful views of the mountains spread out before you! They are terrible for drivers who are prone to vertigo. The road is very steep. You'll feel like leaning into the car and away from the edge. Drive with care as this is a mountain road with hairpin curves and dangerous dropoffs. The pass is usually open from May through November.

hardIs the road to Sabz Chob Pass paved?
🌍 Afghanistan
Okay, adventure junkies, listen up! Sabz Chob Pass in Afghanistan's Ghazni Province is calling your name! We're talking serious altitude here – 9,570 feet! Forget smooth asphalt; this one's a rugged, unpaved beast. Seriously, 4x4 or bust. Trust me, you’ll need it! Think you’re a pro driver? This pass will test you. Drop-offs that’ll make your palms sweat, hairpin turns galore, and the kind of unpredictable terrain that keeps you on your toes. Afghanistan throws in its own special brand of excitement, too. Rugged landscapes, security considerations – it’s all part of the thrill (just be smart, okay?). Road conditions can change in a heartbeat, signage is… well, let’s just say “minimal,” and you need to be aware of your surroundings. This epic route is about 67 miles long, connecting Gelan in the south to Malistan in the north. But hey, if you're up for it, Sabz Chob Pass delivers unforgettable views of Afghanistan's raw, untamed beauty. It's a journey you won't soon forget!
hardDon’t glance down at your phone on the road to Niti Pass
🇮🇳 India
Okay, buckle up, adventurers, because Niti La Pass is calling! This incredible high-altitude pass straddles the India-China border, topping out at a staggering 16,686 feet. Heads up: after the 1962 war, this route connecting Uttarakhand (India) and southern Tibet became a restricted area. You'll need to snag permission from the SDM in Joshimath before you even think about heading up. This is seriously remote territory, so don't expect your cell phone to work. The road itself? Mostly paved, but trust me, you'll want a 4x4 to tackle it. Winter slams the door shut from November to mid-May with heavy snow. Starting from Daba Township, you'll wind your way for 31 epic miles through Nanda Devi National Park. Get ready for some seriously steep climbs (we're talking up to 15% grades!) and a never-ending series of hairpin turns that will test your driving skills. But the scenery? Totally worth it.
extremeWhere is Kuhe Haji Ebrahim?
🌍 Iraq
Okay, so you want off the beaten path? How about the *unpaved, likely-to-get-you-detained-or-worse* path up Kuhe Haji Ebrahim, a prominent peak right on the Iran-Iraq border in the Zagros Mountains? Location-wise, you're straddling the line between Iran's West Azerbaijan Province and Iraq's Erbil Province, gazing out over the rugged Pishdar, Choman, and Sidakan regions. Think impossibly steep terrain with a long history of being a hideout for... well, let's just say "unfriendlies". The road itself? Picture this: hacked into the side of the mountain by the Iranian army to supply a fortified military base. Roughly [insert road length] of loose, raw rock. We’re talking serious, hardcore 4x4 territory with inclines that will test your machine's limits. But here's the kicker: DANGER, DANGER, DANGER. This isn't your average "watch out for the potholes" kind of drive. We're talking landmines leftover from past conflicts, and a heavy military presence that doesn't take kindly to tourists. This is a no-go zone for civilian vehicles. Iraqi officials are concerned about the expanding network of Iranian military outposts in this area for good reason. Think detention if you’re caught without clearance. Seriously, skip this one. Between the terrifying road surface, the threat of explosions, and the watchful eyes of the military, Kuhe Haji Ebrahim is not your next adventure destination. This is a drive best left undriven.
