As a good a spot as any of you're trying to get into Montenegro. A kind rafting camp worker brought us from here to the border even though it was out of his way and saved us a one hour walk.―Kartenhouse

We waited a good 2 hours at this spot close to sunset. To get there, walk up the road towards Montenegro until you reach the spot where you're overlooking the sports court of the village.Like others have mentioned, there is not a lot of traffic before the season starts. There was maybe one car every 5-10 minutes. Which just speaks to how little traffic there is to Montenegro from Bosnia on this road.
2 minutes before giving up, a rafting camp owner picked us up and drove us to his camp down the road. He kindly offered to host me and my companion in one of the chalets in the camp and we got an experience we didn't plan, yet greatly enjoyed. The nature around the camp is just breathtakingly beautiful. No photo could ever capture it!
So in the end, while the hitchhiking itself was not so fruitful (we wanted to get to Podgorica originally), it might have been one of the best experiences I ever had while hitchhiking nonetheless.
I highly recommend stopping in Foča for a night, and continue your journey the next day.
Also, there is a restaurant by the intersection that has a few rooms for 30€/night. On the other side of the road there's a small convenience store to cover some basic needs.

We first waited for a long time at the gas station before this spot, and then moved to the chicken restaurant at the location to take a break after 90 minutes of waiting. We ate our lunch and asked around a bit with the other people in the restaurant. One of them said they can take us to Foča and ended our wait. He was a fast driver, so I'm pretty sure we were at least 30 min faster than anticipated.Also: I highly recommend the restaurant! Great food at very affordable prices.

This whole road that goes to Camp Maglic, Camp Outdoor Tara and more up to Prijevor where you can hike to Maglic or Trnovačko lake is extremely easy to hitch. People are very willing to pick you up and there are many tourists around (summer time) Just make sure to not get lost at night here, it gets cold! We stayed here for two days (2 people), thumbing all the time.―Anonymous

Nice spot next to the Komlen restaurant with a view of the Tjentiste spomenik. There is a big tree that offers shade and a parking at the restaurant where cars can stop. Most cars are going to Foča. Read the article on the monument on spomenik database while you wait!―Anonymous

Senseless in winter or early spring, waited here for multiple hours in March and there was simply no traffic, maybe one car every 10-15 minutes.―HolyDrinker

Me and a friend (two guys) got picked up by a camping owner. If possible, ask the drivers who have a van as many are heading to the rafting camps near the border.―HHSardo

Very nice experience. Some driver took us to a rafting campicng place 5 Km from border. After a break we reached Montenegro by foot. Iit took us only 10min to get a ride to Budva. I would have like to enjoy the place a bit more.. Road, landscape, people are incredible in this region.Don't forget it's the deepest canyon in Europe, 2nd in the world!

We didn't even have time to finish writing our sign when the guy at the table next to us at the restaurant offered us a ride.End goal was Sarajevo which was easy from where he dropped us off.
