The most dangerous gold rush route was the Oregon Trail. Travelers faced numerous hazards, including harsh weather, difficult terrain, and scarce resources, leading to high mortality rates. Additionally, encounters with Native American tribes and the potential for disease further increased the dangers. While other routes, like the Panama and Cape Horn routes, also had their perils, the overland journey on the Oregon Trail was particularly treacherous for many prospectors.
