EU citizens can visit the Belorussian part of the forest, as well as the village of Kamianiuki '''without a visa'''. Since the crossing is for pedestrians/cyclists only, you'll likely be the only person there. There aren't too many parked cars, but just enough to get you picked up to the nearest village on the Polish side (it's not very far, so you can walk, as well). On the Belorussian side, you can either try hitching towards the nearest village of Bely Lesok (there'll be plenty of tourists and only a single road for cars) or you can walk through the forest to Kamianiuki(about 16 km, it's the official "entry" village to the forest on the Belarussian side). From Kamianiuki, you can either hitch, or if you don't have time, take a marshrutka to the bus terminal in Brest. If you're lucky, you can also hitch a ride with one of the park's employees.
If you want to avoid the long waiting times at the Warsaw Bridge border crossing is to take a train from Terespol to Brest. It goes 3 times a day and costs 17 Zloty. You can only pay in zlotys but there is an exchange office in the train station. (July 2016)
