I got dropped off by a driver at this petrol station/rest stop. Used the free toilets and filled my water bottles. Headed to the entrance to the motorway, where I waited for 10 minutes and a kind family headed to Ljubljana, picked me up. There was a decent flow of cars and trucks, it was about 5pm at the time. If you wait with a sign with your destination or just your thumb you should have good luck with hitching from this spot no problems, highly recommended. Also accessible by walking, so it's possible to arrive without a ride 👍―Anonymous

Nice place! Not much of the traffic, but 90 percent goes to Graz or further.You can get there by train from Vienna + a little bit of walking
Asked few people before met a couple going all way to Croatia.

Bus Stop. There's plenty of space to stop for cars, traffic goes somewhat fast, but I guess bearable. Took a little long, but got a perfect shot, Bosnia truck driver who was going all the way to Doboj, we shared a nice chat and he bought me some Bosnia food.Nice place, but demands perseverance.

It's a good spot, but if you arrive late during the day then most truckers are resting so you need to rely on cars. Waited 1,5 hours and then was picked up by a car that took us to Ljubljana.―Chaba

We (a couple) wanted to go to Trieste (Italy). Around 10 pm a Hungarian car that went to Koper (at the Slovenian sea), gave us a lift to Kozina, 15 km from Trieste. If you want to go to Italy and someone says that he just goes to Koper, just go with him to Kozina. It's as near to Koper as near to Italy.―Zaphod

On Thursday, early in the afternoon it was raining. We (two girls) were asking the drivers at the petrol station. After 20 minutes we got a lift to Ljubljana where we were going.Always ask drivers, don't need to stand with a sign, it works better.

It was on the last day of the year, the place was totally empty, BUT luckily I managed to hitch a milk truck towards Hungary, Nagykanizsa. :) I think if the traffic on the motorway is not so busy (as in my case), it is totally okay to hitchhike on the borderline of the parking place and the motorway, it is not dangerous. Good luck!―AdrianB

were brought here by a kind guy that only went to Murska Sobota but took that very useful detour for us. in the first min after getting out we asked a hungarian car with 2 guys that took us over the most tricky part when hh to BP but unfortunately they left at in Nagykanizsa which turned out to be very bad/slow to hh from...―Marcus De

Petrol station. Lots of trucks and cars going all the way to Ljubljana or even further into Italy. There are lots of trucks going the other direction too.―Anonymous

It seemed senseless after a 15 km walk but worked well, just ask the truck drivers around.―Anonymous
