A good spot, not great. If you’re coming from Krakow, hitching at MOP Aleksandrowice, I would recommend you continue hitching there. The flow of traffic here is much lower; a steady trickle rather than the gushing flow of Aleksandrowice. Still got a ride in less than an hour more than half the distance to Berlin, all the same.―Movethathoof

Great spot, the traffic is constant, I hardly had time to even make my sign, the cars and trucks passing without pause. I had an offer to near Katowice within five minutes and took the second offer ten minutes later when they said they’d take me to the next big gas station. I was on my way to Berlin and I would say that this was the better spot than where they took me (Miejsce Obsługi Podróżnych Wirek).I took the city bus from Krakow, there is indeed a fence you have to jump. In the forest to the right of the gate (facing it) you can do so unseen. There’s a spot with a cement post that makes it a bit easier, and I took out my wrench and undid the top screws securing the fence to the post there, making it even easier. Lots of holes that have clearly been repaired, check to see if there’s a new one.

It wasn't good traffic in the morning, I saw literally only one delivery van on parking on polish plates. I asked him and he gave me a ride directly to Katowice, could be Kraków if I would want.―mandat

Pretty good spot, a lot of people going south. not much traffic into chechia itself, but you can get closer to the border.―sysy

One of the best places to hitchhike near Katowice. We planned to go in the direction of Ostrava in the further Budapest and we managed to catch the driver to Vienna. Overall, a great place to catch a foot in the direction of Wroclaw, Berlin, Vienna. It is worth going to the parking lot and asking people where they are going - a lot of individual drivers and trucks.―Moonhans

I don't know why, but for a very long time people didn't want to stop - we headed towards Rybnik -> Ostrava―Moonhans

If you got here, just draw a sign with pictogram of a gas station and try to get to the next petrol station which is 25 km away on A1―estasbien
