“On the way to Brno with a sign with Czech flag🇨🇿.. in the hour i counted 30 cars with Czech license plate.. one took me. I almost gave.. but I don't think there's a better spot from Bratislava to Brno or Czechia in general”

“Very good spot for hitching with a sign in the direction of Czechia, got a ride to Brno within 10 minutes. Lots of cars with Slovak number plates but some with Czech plates too. The spot is after a crossroad, so cars don't go too fast, and they can stop at the bus station that is following afterwards. Make sure your sign is big enough since the street is very wide. Also make sure to apply sunscree”

“Not the best place, since there are not too many cars - and these are going in different directions. We got dropped off there and ended up waiting about 20 min before a man picked us up and drove us to a bigger gazstation a few kilometres further down the road.”

“Terrible place for hh to Prague. I was stuck here for more than 2 hours in the evening. I gave up, pitched my tent and slept. Next day I took taxi to next petrol station in direction to Prague.”

“Lots of traffic here especially heading towards Poland. There was a lot of cars which were very full but found a ride eventually. Depending on what final destination is, maybe worth writing 'Polska' and then taking polish trains to Krakow/Katowice/Częstochowa.”

“BP gas station with a parking lot for trucks. Lots of opportunities - Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus...”

“Best spot when u are hitchiking alone as there are so many truck drivers, but cars ride more to Katowice or Wroclaw. I recommend you to stay nearby gas station no at the end of parking.”
