Georgia Land Border Crossings by Motorcycle

Key Border Checkpoints

Georgia has multiple active international land border checkpoints accessible by motorcycle:

1. Sarpi (Georgia – Turkey)

• South of Batumi.
• Extremely modern 24/7 facility right on the Black Sea coast.
• Motorcycles can often filter safely to the front of passenger car queues. Keep right.

1. Dariali / Upper Larsi (Georgia – Russia)

• Located in the high Caucasus gorge near Stepantsminda (Kazbegi).
• Subject to sudden weather closures, mudslides, and tunnel queues. In summer, motorcyclists are customarily permitted to filter to the barrier.

1. Sadakhlo (Georgia – Armenia)

• Primary route between Tbilisi and Yerevan. Asphalt quality is good.

1. Bavra / Ninotsminda (Georgia – Armenia)

• High plateau route via Javakheti. Chilly even in summer, stunning volcanic lake landscapes.

1. Vale (Georgia – Turkey)

• Near Akhaltsikhe. Less crowded alternative to Sarpi.
