“Slovenia is a great country to hitchhike! Just after the traffic light were the cars not moving too fast, and there was plenty of space to stop at the bus stop. Got a ride straight to Bled after 10 minutes with two slovenians. It was really nice!”

“bus stop "Kompas" without a bus bay. it also is located right after the turn, it's inconvenient and dangerous for cars to stop. go to the next station or even better - 2 more ("Trata"). regional bus to Bled also stops there, if you change your mind.”

“Plenty of traffic leaving the town, I hitched around midday back to Ljubljana. I had a small sign saying 'LJ' and I borrowed materials from the petrol station to make it. I waited about half a hour at the entrance to the forecourt, before getting a ride straight to the capital.”

“maybe it's a good place towards LJ, but not at weekends afternoon, we had to wait about one hour to get a lift to the highway, but after it was ok :)”

“Lot of cars going to multiple destinations! hold a panel in the entrance of the gas station next to the circle point and you will by sure find a car to your destination, my experience was "Germany" panel and after 5 min someone stopped for me going directly to Munich”
