There is WiFi and shade.Alot of traffic from cars trucks and busses.
Sign to Sofia.
Alot of busses leaving the parking looked and gestured me like they would have taken me but couldn't stop again so maybe be visible to them or directly ask them.
Just before i wanted to call it a night in the nearby field on my last round of asking people a trucker took me all the way to Sofia:) The walk across the border to BG is longer than usual if you get there by truck since they get separated a few hundred meters earlier

Sign Nis/SofiaLiterally the first car stopped. (Fancy BMW 7 series Limousine)
Not much space for stopping tho so need to be fast.
They only needed to go half way to Niš but drove me all the way. Helped diagnose their car and fix it at the gas station before Niš with a nice ice cream:)

Solo female. Asked around for Skopje but many cars were going to Bulgaria or were full (with kids/pets/grandparents). Maybe because it was a Sunday during the summerBut idk if there's another spot near Niš that could be easier, since there's no gas stations on the southbound highway until almost Vranje
Eventually found a big truck who dropped me off just outside of Skopje because he had to stay on the Ring Road highway

Okey spot if u go south in direction of Nis or Krusevac. We got an offer to go to Vrnjacka Banja, however we were going to Nis. No shadow in this place.―Anonymous

Maybe i wasn't lucky but it was 18pm, tried for three hour to get a lift but nobody stopped, tried direct on the highway too with no success. End up sleeping there and someone took me the next morning after 2 hour to nič.―Mick

Lol didn't even had the time to write my sign (used the thumb while few cars were passing by) that a car with two Macedonians asked me where I go : "South, North Macedonia...Bulgaria?" "Come in!". Indirect ride to Skopje because they invited me at a generous grill restaurant! Had no problem to pass me trough the border, even though I was heavily controlled―cavalierrustique

I waited 5 minutes and had already two cars stopping for me without a sign lol. One was going to Leskovac but I checked is best to stop at gas station before Nis. I took bus 70 to go there. This is basically a nice little hike of 20mn and fence was open to pass through. I am a 27M with moustache and nice hat, if it helps.―cavalierrustique

I had a cardboard with NIŠ -> SOFIA sign but it didn't help much. What it helped it was asking the truck drivers if they would take me.―rikimongrel1

If you're heading towards Sofia/Istanbul, this is an average spot for hitchhiking; more drivers head towards Greece/Macedonia. We tried to hitchhike at a gas station for 2.5 hours, then moved directly onto the highway. After 45 minutes, a driver heading to Pirot stopped us. I don't know if we were unlucky or if it's actually a bad spot. It's hard to say. (Perhaps we should ask the drivers at the Nais Hotel on the other side.) Overall, it's a good place for a wild camping trip – there's a quiet meadow behind the fence, and if you need one, there's a shop and a toilet.―Moonhans

We tried to hitchhike towards Nisz/Sofia, heading towards Istanbul. After a few conversations, we managed (with a good deal of luck) to catch a driver heading towards Nisz. The driver was so kind and positive that he took us to Nisz, even though he was going slightly in the opposite direction. What's more, he took us to a huge dinner at a good local restaurant. (We broke the speed record while hitchhiking, reaching 188 km/h.) Overall, it seems like a great place to hitchhike towards Sofia, with heavy traffic from cars and trucks.―Moonhans

Regular but not abundant traffic, there were 4 trucks parked (Turkish and Bulgarian). I was lucky to get a ride from a Serbian border control all the way to Bulgarian border since the truck drivers parking there were not to keen on taking me. was holding a sign Pirot―Anonymous

Waited with a sign Nis, right on the highway just after the barriers (I saw two policemen looking guys hitch the same way). Hungarian driver going to Greece took me, Lots of traffic and no problem for car to stop directly on the road since the ones behind have to stop for the toll barrier anyway. Took bus 493 from Sava Centar in Beograd to get there, public transport is free (for now).―Anonymous

Good for hitching to Kosovo. High visibility and plenty of room for cars and trucks to pull over. Take bus 10 (direction 9. Maj) to the final stop and walk to the edge of the village. Don't bother walking to the cross with E75 as this is not an interchange.―Anonymous
