These are the Deadliest Tourist Attractions on Earth

Kokoda Trail

New Guinea is a rarely touristed vacation destination that is gaining popularity as “poverty tourism” starts to expand. It’s very inexpensive to travel to New Guinea, and the scenery there is some of the coolest and least-touched-by-society that you can come by in modern times. However, this means that there is little in the way of developed infrastructure, in fact, the majority of inhabitants along the Kokoda Trail are villagers that are disconnected from society by choice. Along this trail, there are no roads, no cars, no doctors, no general stores, just you, your shoes, and 60 miles of difficult terrain.
