Ideally placed to get out of Podgorica, towards Albania. I stood right after the roundabout, there was room for the cars to pull over and even some shade from the road sign. I had a sign reading “Albania”. Had to wait quite a bit but going to Tirane that was worth the wait.

Bus stop where cars can safely stop. A lot of traffic to Podgorica. I got a ride really fast with a driver going to Cetinje, then Podgorica

More people go here to Budva (then Podgorica) than through the tunnel. A lot of space to stop and cars are going at a good pace. Definitely recommend

Good place outside of town, but during the tourist season no one seems to want to stop, no shade if going towards Bar/Podgorica, at least easy to get back into town and shops/bus station near by

Good for catching drivers going straight and those out of Theth. Around 11am there seemed to be many passenger vans and private cars leaving Theth. I thumbed for 5 seconds and an Albanian family picked me up (they even woke up their boy sleeping on the back seat to make room for me!!). We stopped for coffee and strawberry-picking on the way. They were driving to Shkodër and dropped me off at the SH1/SH21 intersection outside of Koplik for me to continue on to Podgorica

Headed to Podgorica, signed and thumbed. No shade here but very good for being seen by drivers out of Koplik and those going straight after the roundabout. Waited for 20min. Saw many Montenegrin-plated cars. Apparently they are not as open to hitchhiking as the Albanians. But got picked up by a Montenegrin guy going home to Podgorica

we tried at night: nothing after 2 hours. in the morning we waited for 20-30 minutes and got a ride to podgorica. signal actively to drivers with plates other than "RO" on the other side of the gas station there is a place to stop and a bakery. we spent a night behind the gas station on some random lawn and had no issues.

Not the best spot as cars drive fast. But stood at the entrance of gas station and somebody just stopped and got a ride to podgorica. Didnt want to wait for train. There is train stop in 9 mins.

Very shit spot. Tried on the main road but cars go fast and there is piterally zero space but got picked up by people going from virpazar to zabljak but needed only podgorica. I would suggest taking the train ehoch is cheap (i didnt want to wait 1 hour) ot just asking people at the exit of town if they hoing to your direction

Didnt like this spot a lot. A bit akward for cars to stop but still got picked up fast to podgorica. If you want a better spot there is a bus stop 15 mins up the way but cars might go pretty fast there so idk.

A particularly good spot for going towards Lezhë, got at least 4 or 5 offers. I would use a sign for anything further. In the end I got a ride to Shköder from some tourists heading towards Podgorica.

We came here around 13:50, but were hhing with breaks because of rain. Sign Trebinje, but a guy took us all the way to Podgorica, thought of changing sign to Buna. People don't really stop much, maybe because of the season - even with empty cars
