Very good spot towards Risti/Haapsalu/Tallinn. Not a lot of traffic and loads of cars turn the other directions, but the odds of a car picking you up here are pretty good, as well as loads of long distance cars, every time i have been here the driver has been going to Tallinn, which is very nice, as well as two good options on the way for Haapsalu, so all in all a really nice wide stop with good visibility, wait times of 5-25 minutes to be expected

A Georgian in a LT car stopped, and took me to Tallinn from here with a coffee and snack stop in between.

Really good spot. You can be clearly seen by drivers, and there is a lot of space to stop. I got a ride with a really nice guy all the way to Tallinn.

Overall a nice spot, have waited twice in two weeks here for around 15min and got a straight ride to Tallinn.

Asked around in the line of cars waiting for the ferry. Most of them were driving towards Tallinn/Harjumaa, but then found a car driving to Tartu through Pärnu.

Hitched a ride quickly to the centre of Tallinn in the dark. There was light there so it was alrighty.

Towards Keila/Tallinn, Madise, after the army camp, you can hitch just anywhere on the road, good odds of getting picked up by drivers and quite some long distance cars as well, friendly people, wait times of 5-15 minutes expected

Towards Vääna-Jõesuu, in theory should be a good spot, good visiblity, nice bus stop and even cars turning from Kolmiku road towards you but in reality noone really wants to stop here, nor the other direction (some local lad missed his bus and tried to hitch towards Tallinn and failed to do so also, during midday very low traffic also for such populated area, wait times of 50-80 minutes expected, I ended up walking to find a better spot (not really much of options coming for the next few kms)

Towards Muraste, I'd use this patch of sideroad as there's a really wide asphalted side on the road for the houses by the side of the road, which is very comfortable for drivers to stop to, as well as u have good view from cars coming from Tallinn direction, the bus stop a bit further up is frequented with local busses, has usually lots of people in them as well as foilage is skewing the view, this here is a rather ideal spot, wait times of 5-20 minutes expected

Tested my luck trying to go around Pärnu, quite a long speeding up lane from the Maksimarket, good visibility and speeds are low, tho a loads of cars around here will just enter Pärnu, within 30 minutes someone will feel bad and stop for you, but the odds of that car going to Tallinn are small and for Ikla even smaller. Might be worth to have a sign, I would rather recommend taking the city busses

Was quickly picked up by a guy driving to Tallinn on a Sunday morning.

Towards Riisipere (or Pärnu highway), either way almost noone would stop here, your best shot is to walk to Haiba, and try from there if you head to Riisipere and go to the highway for Pärnu, here almost all of the cars drive just ca 2 kms to Haiba, people from Haiba, Riisipere etc use usually Pärnu highway exits to go either direction (Pärnu/Tallinn) so no point in staying here.

Perfect spot to ask around and get a direct ride to Tallinn. I literally even didn't finished writing my Tallinn sign, when a kind woman came to me, pointed at my unfinished sign and said that she could give me a lift to Tallinn

A lot of cars going both directions. Waited with 2 fellow Polish hitchhikers, they had an "EST" sign. We got a direct ride to Tallinn in approximately 20 minutes.

Bus stop before exit to Kunda. I was there in the morning with sign 'Tallinn', so not many cars were going that way. Got a ride after 35 minutes or so to the Lahemaa national park

I added this spot 'cause maybe it's the best to stay on the road to Tallinn if you come from Narva and the car you're in turns or stops.
After, the speed of the cars increases
The cross makes plenty of space

To Tallinn, very hard spot, might be just worth walking to Laagri yourself, wait times of 60+ minutes around here

Good for heading towards Tallinn - wait of 10 minutes, quite some cars take this road, not that much traffic headed towards Jõelähtme for that direction you definitely need to walk to the roundabout

Small bus stop towards Maardu, if you come from Tallinn you can also try the roundabout but a lot of cars turn to Muuga so I'd recommend just walking here if you are headed towards Maardu as a lot of locals use Kaldase road to come from Muuga, wait times of around 10 minutes to be expected
