“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.”
― Kelob, Mon 2026-08-31 · Brno
“found a direct ride to Warsaw in about ten minutes”
― Uncle sam01, Fri 2016-03-25 · MOP Rowień Wschód
