What hitchhikers said along this route
“Gas station, the best way to go to Praha. You have to go by tram to last stop Ustredni Hrbitov, then go by the highway about 1,5 km. Lot of cars, all are going to Praha, but always several hitchhikers waiting”

“Honestly? This place sucks balls but there's no better (legal) place so you don't have much of a choice. First of all, it's a huge pain in the ass to get there. I took a bus to the Vyhlídalova bus stop (north of the station) and walked from there. I had to cross a small brook and climb over a fence of the orchard (the big green thing around the gas station). Owner of the orchard was obviously piss”

“For us it was a bit tricki, we climbed up, from an apple field, but it was easy to get very close by trams and bus. we started hiking at 12, and after 25-30 minutes we got 2 rides at the same time till praga. one would take us to berlin, but we switched directions at praha, and went west.”

“It´s the best legal place to HH on D1 from Brno to the west. Just go by tram 6 or 8 to the stop Osová, then take bus Nr. 69 to the stop Čermákova, cross the street Elišky Přemyslovny and go up the street Čermákova. You cross the railway and then just before the D1 hike the slope on the left side. You have to walk about 100 m along the highway to reach this OMV gas station. I wait here regulary dur”

“We got an lift by the first person we asked for direct to Prague. It is easy to find if you get on the highwaz where the Martina Sevicka (street) is crossing the highway. You have to get up a little hill to the highway and there is kind a gate in the noice protection wall. Have a good HH”

“It's 3km from tram station to the gas station on bad terrain near the highway, no foodpath. I was there on the evening, on the gas station were almost no cars and most didn't go to Prague. Been waiting there for more then hour and had to go back.. again half an hour by walking next to hw. I suggest some better place, this sucks”

“first guy we asked took us to Prag in his Audi :) Wed. 3.7.13 at 11:30 have been lucky here before in October 2012, when I didn't even get a chance to go to the restroom yet but WAS asked »are you a hitchhiker?«! - that guy took me 815km to Bremen (I drove half the way)!”

“P.S. to the comment above: The driver was mad at me at first and gave me a ten minutes scolding for hitchhiking on such a dangerous place (I was standing on the 'spike' between the highway and the access road to the petrol station). But hey, he stopped, I got a lift, we then talked a laughed all the way to Prague and no one got hurt :)”
