Bataysk (Russian: Батайск) is a satellite city of Rostov-on-Don in Russia. Hitchhikers often arrive in the city when traveling from the south of the Russian Federation by train. Not all trains stop at Rostov-Glavny station! Sometimes it is necessary to exit specifically in Bataysk and get to the M4 highway from there. This description is for such cases.

Hitchhiking out
East towards the A135
- On foot, use the pedestrian bridge over the railway tracks eastwards, about 2 km. First go along Molokova Street through a private housing area, then through a block of apartment buildings. You can hitchhike at the triangle near the entrance to Vorovskogo St. 65G.
- Take bus 6A to Leningradskaya Street, then walk to the highway near the "Yuzhny" waterpark. You can hitchhike either at the entrance to the "Zhemchuzhnaya" hotel or near the truck parking lot just to the south.
Towards Voronezh and Krasnodar via M4
- "Salskoye Ring" junction. There is a police post, but the highway to Rostov passes over a flyover. You will need to hitchhike at the junction or on the acceleration lane. From the Bataysk railway station, take buses 5 or 2 to Neftbaza. Then walk south past the "Svetofor" supermarket and through the junction.
- Junction with Samarskoye highway. Bus No. 8 will take you halfway to the "Tekhnikum" stop; after that, you need to hitchhike further to the junction. South of the junction on the M4, there are many 24-hour cafes, truck parking lots, a spare parts market, etc. You can try asking drivers for a ride.
- Bus No. 5 goes from the station to Zalesye seven times a day. The bus turns off the highway a few kilometers south of the last junction. There is no official stop at this turn, but you can arrange with the driver to drop you off at the turn to Koisugsky and walk back to the highway. After 600 meters along the highway, you will reach a cluster of cafes and gas stations that should be well lit. From there you can hitchhike both south and north.
