It is better to start after the motorway crosses the ring roar. The station (by bus or by local train) you need is called Gorskaya (it is a bit farther that previous places), there go under the estacade and find a right place. Beginning before this place means you don't get any trucks that make the main traffic on this road. Before Zelenogork the most cars are local (especially on week-ends), try to get the one that goes farther.
=== South toward towards [[Moscow]] ===
Take the metro to the station ''Kupčino'' (Ку́пчино) and then bus 196 to the stop ''Moskovskaya Slavyanka'' (Московская Славянка). You can hitch from just before the bus stop. Traffic jams are frequent here, slowing down traffic enough to get a ride faster.
Another option is to get to ''Ploshad Pobedy'' (Площадь Победы). The nearest metro station is Moskovskaya. It's the beginning of the road to Moscow (Moskovskoye Shosse), pretty easy to catch direct rides to the capital here. A sign saying Moscow might be useful.
=== Southwest towards [[Tallinn]] ===
 
Take the Metro to the station of Prospekt Veteranov (Проспект Ветеранов), Go out of the station and walk on the street carrying the same name towards west, when you get to Prospekt Marshala Zhukova street (Проспект Маршала Жукова) cross the road and turn left. There's a bus stop and a lot of space for cars to pull over, and there's traffic jams very often, so you shouldn't wait too long. This road will take you to the M-11, going all the way to the Estonian border.
If walking is too long for you (3.7 km), There must be a bus going there as well, please add the information if you know one.
