The village is passed by the National road 4 (part of E67 or the Via Baltica), and is the starting point of the National road 6 (Valga–Uulu highway).
Reiu is the location of Lottemaa, a theme park inspired by the Lotte from Gadgetville. In Soviet times, the site was home to the Kullipesa missile base.
