The
Rikoti Pass (რიკოთის უღელტეხილი) (el. 996 meters) is a
mountain pass in the southern portion of the
Likhi Range, a spur of the
Greater Caucasus which divides
Georgia into its western and eastern parts. The
Tbilisi-
Kutaisi highway connecting the two major cities of Georgia runs through the pass in a rock-cut tunnel of 1,722 m. length which was constructed in 1982.
