This tippy and bumpy road is 128 km long. It links the cities of Lviv (750'000 inhabitants) and Ivano-Frankivsk (230'000 inhabitants). The drive takes more than 2.30 hours due the conditions of the road. 

This national road is part of the Highway H09. If you catch one of the holes, your tire is gone. Many times your best option is the first gear.
