Worst place ever I just wanted to go to the next spot and had infinite luck with a guy who drove me straight to where I wanted to go to in Slovenia. On the way we stopped by a lake and went swimming there, really nice ride :)―Nice4eis

Bad spot for going to slovenia since everybody from villach will use the next highway entrance, might be better for going west though.―Nice4eis

Tried again to find a ride after I failed on the previous two points.If some one actually have a car mostly he has his family or dog. So no place.
Since Villach is near Italy alot of cars come her and work here. So trying to communicate with some one with Italian plate always failed. I asked around 15 persons.
My last plan was to take a flixbus to Udine €17 or Venice €23.
Luckily some one gave me ride to next village on the highway. He said there are highr chances for you there.

Spot not easy to get to by foot. Lots of cars and caravans going both directions on the motorway. Got picked up by a nice irish couple on a roadtrip in their van.―jakabolya007

Hitchhiked from here to get to Villach, Ana amazing spot where the only direction is Austria so you can get to Villach quite quick. Lovely man from Kosovo drove me straight to the station.―aidannels05

Lots of cars and good place to stop.We were there on a Saturday afternoon and nobody took us for like 3,5 hours.
Most of the people go to the shopping center.

We got sent here by ASFiNAG (highway services in AT) after unsuccessfully going to hitchhike at the exit from the roundabout (which is already a highway) and after some waiting time they drove around again and gave us a wave and a thumbs up - so this spot is approved 😅👍🏼It is possible to stop cars going from all directions, enough space on the roadside to stand and to pull over.
A bit tricky if you are going to SLO/KL, because the roundabout lanes are the 2nd and 3rd.. if going direction Germany, then it's great, it's the 1st lane closest to you.
-2 guys, sign KL, Saturday afternoon

The main bus stop at the exit of Mojstrana, easy peasy!I met a French guy in my hostel, he had never hitched before, but we were going to Ljubljana on the same day, so we figured it could be fun if he tagged along! It was pouring down with rain, so we left our bags in the bus stop, and only darted out to stick our thumbs up when we saw headlights in the distance, before retreating back to the dry.
This worked wonders! Within 15 minutes we were in the car of Marco and his 90 year old mother, who loving gave us a lift to Jesenice, and offered us the first of a few umbrellas we’d be refusing that day.
Marcos mother didn’t speak any English, and my Slovene was sadly not good enough to understand her, but my suspicions were confirmed when upon us leaving the car, she proudly announced “BONNE VOYAGE!”

Great spot, I recommend to go a little bit further towards highway on the ramp. There is good space for cars to stop. I had a sign "A11 SLO" and literally first car stopped and took me to Radovljica.―mandat

It was raining and already dark so I just stayed on the station and ask drivers. One guy took me straight to Villach. I saw a lot of cars with SLO plates. In good weather and daylight probably it's better to stand on the exit from the parking, there is a lot of truck drivers who are taking a break on these parkings.―mandat

Most cars have no room because they are visiting their family in the balkans and people who go to Italy don’t take you. But if some one who drives to the balkans has space they are insanely kind.―Anonymous
