As part of the M-27 ([[Dzhubga]]-[[Sochi]]-[[Tbilisi]]), the '''E97''' is the main road of [[Abkhazia]]. The road goes along the shore of the Black Sea at a length of 215 km. It is mainly a winding and pretty narrow road with no markings, partly missing asphalt. As in 2011, roadworks are on their way to fix the highway. Distance from the Russian border to Sukhumi is 120 km, from Sukhumi to the Georgian border 95 km. As the roads are filled mainly with local drivers and taxis, hitchhiking takes approximately 2-3 hours for each part.

At border checkpoint ''Psou'', be aware of many minibusses and taxis. Just walk about 1 km further towards the crossing with a GAI (police post) and hitchhike there, making hitchhiking quite difficultas motorized vehicles crossing the border take another way, though have to cross this post as well. Within the country, is it probably fastest to hitchhike from one GAI/DPS (police) post to the other. These can be found each 10 20 to 20 50 km. According to the [http://ve.free-travels.ru/articles/item.php?country=abkhazia AVP], traffic Traffic police is very hospitable towards hitchhikers. See [[mentostop]] for more info. Outside those DPS-posts, hitchhiking is much worse because very possible as well, though be aware of the extremely small amount of comfortable positionssome narrow roads, the abundance of human settlements, the predominance of local traffic and Abkhazians who love to drive very fast.
