Not much traffic, but after walking here from the border I got a ride in minutes straight to Tartu.

Not the best spot, as the cars are going fast here, but if you have a big sign, cars can see you from a distance. I had a sign saying EST and got a ride to Valga.

To Smiltene. Write down your aim and a first car going this direction will take you :)

To Valmiera, Riga. In the night its better to stay her, but during the day you can also try to change position, if you are waiting for a lift for 30 min.

I should be a good one, but it was Sunday afternoon and there weren´t many cars. Anyway it is the right spot to Tartu.

Since this is my hometown i can surely say this is the best place to hitchhike to Valmiera or Riga from Valka. Usually takes less than 30min here. No sign required since this road takes you only to big cities.

A bus stop there, you can start to hitchhike to Smiltene from there. The best place since all the cars have just turned from and haven't gained any speed. Depending on the time of the day, the traffic can be low sometimes.

This spot is on a bus stop, where can stop. Traffic is fast. At first we wanted to go to Pärnu in Estonia but after 25 minutes we stopped car to Valga.

Towards Tõrva, local cars coming from Hummuli or Soe use this road, so low speeds before the turn and kinda okayish amount of cars, bus stop is wide, people friendly, wait times of 20-40 minutes expected mainly due to the lack of the cars, you can try to catch cars on main road also, but there's uncomfortable hill just before and high speeds with no real side of the road there

Towards Tartu, only use during winter with loads of snow cuz the main Valga spot by then is covered by snow and for some reason they dont plow it well enough, however more towards the little river the sides are done wide and you can stop personal cars there way better, wait times of 10-30 minutes expected, low traffic as usual for Valga.

Indeed ideal spot for going basically anywhere towards Riga or major cities in Latvia, as well as even further south, wide enough bus stop to have a lorry stop, decent street lights for the darker times, okay amount of traffic, wait times of 10-25 minutes expected
