Solo female. Asked a random car if they were heading down toward Lake Ohrid. They initially said they had too much stuff but were then willing to reorganize to fit me in :)

Solo female. I asked my previous ride to drop me off here so I can get another ride into the national park. Traffic was very very light here at the NP entrance for the first 30min of waiting, then a bunch of cars came from the Albania direction. But many were unwilling to take me

However, the fee station guy also nicely helped me ask (in Macedonian), and he found me a couple who took me to the Koritski Rid viewpoint. I just asked a car at the viewpoint to take me back down when I was done

Solo female. Sign for St Naum and got a ride from within 10min. This spot is right outside the parking lot for the museum. A decent amount of traffic and has a huge pullout for cars to stop

Solo female. Signed for St Naum and was picked up by a guy going to Gradiste in 10min. Many people are heading in that direction, but there are many beaches before St Naum so not everyone goes all the way there. So it was helpful to be taken halfway still

This spot is shaded and next to the exit of a parking lot, where cars can stop. Lots of traffic and cars are slow

Solo female, thumbed without sign at around 18:30 on a workday during the summer. Many cars were leaving (1 car every 30 seconds). This stop is right by the bus station

Three young Macedonian guys took me straight to Ohrid

I went to Ohrid from Pogradec. I choosed not to go the way through Saint Naum Monastery, where there is less traffic.
Several cars and buses came but they mainly showed me where the buses are. Then I was dropped off at the intersection between the road to Tirana and the one to Ohrid.
