Ghat Roads, Mountain pass roads in Western and Eastern Ghats, India
The Ghat roads consist of numerous hairpin turns and steep inclines connecting coastal regions to the elevated Deccan Plateau through mountain ranges.
The British colonial administration constructed these mountain roads during the 19th century to establish access routes to hill stations for summer residence.
Many Ghat roads lead to sacred temples and pilgrimage sites, serving millions of devotees who travel through these routes for religious purposes.
Travelers need to maintain vehicles properly and check weather conditions before embarking on journeys through these mountain passes, particularly during monsoon season.
The Kolli Hills Ghat Road features exactly 70 continuous hairpin bends across its length, making it one of the most complex mountain roads in India.
