French Guiana, commonly known as Guiana, is a territory located on the northeastern coast of South America. It is bordered by Brazil to the south and east and Suriname to the west. French Guiana is the only French overseas department in South America and is an integral part of France.

The total length of the road network is around 3,000 kilometers. Most of the roads in the territory are unpaved and are often impassable during the rainy season. However, there are a few paved highways, including the National Route 1, which runs from Cayenne, the capital of French Guiana, to Saint-Georges.

There are no expressways or highways in French Guiana, and most of the roads are narrow and winding, making them unsuitable for high-speed travel. However, there are several 4×4 tracks that are popular among adventure enthusiasts.

The dense rainforests, rivers, and waterfalls provide a stunning backdrop for hikers and nature lovers.
