This '''October 2017''': ''[[User:Kossabossa|Kossabossa]]: the place has low traffic and no one is probably going all the way to Vienna. It took us about 45 minutes to find a ride to a Shell gas station in Mikulov, from where it was really easy to find a much better one than the first optionride to Vienna. '' ==== Unicorn fuel station ==== Take bus 40, 48, 59, 67 or a tram 2 to the free stop "Avion busModřice, Tyršova" and get off at Hněvkovského. Walk 450m in And walk little bit back near the direction the bus was Unicorn fuel station. Cars are going (if very fast here, however, and don't have much room to stop, so you took might try alternating between thumbing on the bus from the city center). After passing a crossroads with traffic lights, you will see a gas station. Now you can choose whether you approach people that road and asking drivers who stop at the gas station or stand at the beginning of the fairly long driveway to it.
Take the free bus from behind Tesco=== Northeast towards [[Prostějov]], at the tram 2 stop ''Ořechovská''[[Olomouc]], to the shopping center (''obchodni centrum'') Futurum. Once you are at at the shopping center Futurum[[Ostrava]], you will find a Tesco gas station, but most of the people there are just staying in town. So, walk south a couple of kilometres to a Unicorn petrol station. You can hitch with a [[Katowice]] (big!PL) sign reading "Wien" or "Mikulov"{{Dcz|1}}{{E|462}} <br />+ east towards [[Kroměříž]], the last city in the [[Zlín]] {{Motorway Number Czech Republic before the border.

ATTENTION!!!As for august 2014 the tram number 2 is not going this way due to some construction!!! The situation might be back as before, so ask the locals or the drivers.You need to take the tram 2X which should be longer and then it will drop you at the good spot. You can change from 2 to 2x at the stop Vsetinskà.The best would be to go to the stop named: Modřice, Tyršova. Where you just have 400m to the petrol station on the main road to Vienna.Other option:There is a nice spot for hitchhiking just next to the tram spot Ústřední hřbitov (2x at the moment [[Trenčín]] (08.14SK) where you can hhike south to Vienna or just to the next petrol station. When you get off the tram just go on the main street and then turn right 100m and you will find a nice place to stop cars. Keep in mind that this spot is not on the main road so a litle smaller trafic.{{Ncz|50}}{{E|50}} ===
Best spot (for D1 only): From the stop Úzká (next to the big Tesco close to train station) or bus station Zvonařka take bus 402 to Jiříkovice, motorest Rohlenka (about 20min). Cross the street and you are at a huge petrol station (with KFC, McD, etc.) which is outside of Brno right at D1. Lot of drivers to Olomouc and Ostrava.

== Hitching out ==
__TOC__=== Northwest towards [[Jihlava]], [[Praha]] {{Motorway Number Czech RepublicDcz|1}}{{E|50}}{{E|65}} ===
==== First option =====
This spot is quickly and easily accessible from various parts of Brno with hitchability from average to good. Find trolley-bus 25, 26 or 29 and get off at stop "Čtvrtě". From the bridge you can see big road to Prague. Go down and after 200 m there is smaller petrol station. Next to it is great place to hitchhike just a few metres from pump machines where you can ask people. Unfortunately on this lane often parks some truck or two so you can only hitchhike cars leaving station or ask.
If you get stuck here, you can try your luck in another spot which is quite close to this one. Walk towards the highway and the bridge over your road, climb up the bridge and follow the road NW until you see traffic lights and you can stand right after the lights where you get people from both directions. However, it's really difficult for drivers to stop here for you to get in. It's much, much better to just go to second option, it's not that far away.
==== Second option ====
15 minutes walk from stop "Osová" - trams 6, 8 or trolley-buses 25, 29 (terminus). From tram stop go up to the bridge. From trolley-buses loop go over the bridge. There is bus stop, you can take bus 69 to stop "Čermákova" or continue this wide road 400 m to the end - crossroad with new houses behind. You can already see the motorway and petrol station. But turn right. After 350 m you are at the bus stop "Čermákova". Turn left (street Čermákova) and at the end you can see small tunnel under motorway. Just before tunnel on the left you can go up and after 300 m you are at OMV petrol station. In winter could be hard to get there.
==== Third option ====
Small petrol station OMV on the motorway near Bosonohy - almost without cars. To Bosonohy, bus stop "Hoštická" you can get by bus 69 (from Masaryk's University campus, or trams 6, 8 stop "Dunajská"). Then go little bit back to the main road and right. After 1,5 km you will see that station. Or from "Dunajská" you can go by bus 401 or 402 (you have to pay the driver; once an hour) to request stop "Tranzitní plynovod". Just few metres back and right is that petrol station.
Bigger petrol station Shell on the motorway near Popůvky. A bit further from Brno (3 km after the Third option) but almost all cars go to Prague or even further. Take bus 401 or 402 (↑↑) to the "Popůvky - Vintrovna" stop. Continue on the main road 850 m and there is the spot. You can also walk & hitchhike to this place from Bosnohy.
=== South towards [[Bratislava]](SK), [[Budapest]] (H) {{Motorway Number Czech RepublicDcz|2}}{{E|65}} === ==== First option ==== Take bus number 67, or the free "Avion bus" (it goes from 9am till 10pm every 20/30 minute) that starts on the bus stop "Úzká", and get off at the commercial zone “Avion”. There is a petrol station (where you can shower and even sleep) along the motorway which is going to [[Slovakia]]. It's a big commercial zone with big shops. One of them has free internet access, it's the electrical shop before Ikea.This isn't the great greatest spot, but there just isn't any better, so don't expect any miracles. [[User:Ondercan|Ondercan]] would say that the average waiting time Asking around is close to 2h and there's always a lot of local traffic near probably crucial at this mallspot. The petrol station is on the parallel road to the highway that goes directly to Bratislava so there aren't actually many cars going to Bratislava but mostly local people stopping by after shopping. Also it's almost impossible to hitchhike from the exit of Avion too, Ondercan stood there more than 2h with Ideally get a sign with no success. In total Ondercan waited there more than 5h, when deciding trucker to go back and take the train. While hopping the train it's important you at least to remember that tickets are controlled twice, both after getting in the train and after entering Slovakianext MOL gas station (about 16km out).
==== Second Option ====
This is probably a much better one than the first option. Take bus 40, 48, 59, 67 or the free "Avion bus" and get off at Hněvkovského. Walk 450m in the direction the bus was going (if you took the bus from the city center). After passing a crossroads with traffic lights, you will see a gas station. Now you can choose whether you approach people that stop at the gas station or stand at the beginning of the fairly long driveway to it.
=== South towards [[Vienna]] (A) {{Dcz|52}}{{E|461}} ===
==== First option ====
Take the free bus from behind Tesco, at the tram 2 stop ''Ořechovská'', to the shopping center (''obchodni centrum'') Futurum. Once you are at at the shopping center Futurum, you will find a Tesco gas station, but most of the people there are just staying in town. From here you can walk couple of kilometres or use tram 2 to second spot.
=== South towards [[Vienna]] {{rcz|52}}{{E|461}} = Third option ====There is a nice spot for hitchhiking just next to the tram 2 stop "Ústřední hřbitov" where you can hitch south to Vienna or just to the next petrol station. When you get off the tram just go on the main street and then turn right 100m and you will find a nice place to stop cars. Keep in mind that this spot is not on the main road so there's a litle smaller trafic.
=== Northeast towards [[Prostějov]], [[Olomouc]], [[Ostrava]] {{Motorway Number Czech Republic|1}}{{E|462}} <br />+ east towards [[Kroměříž]], [[Zlín]] {{Motorway Number Czech Republic|1}} <br />+ east towards [[Uherské Hradiště]], [[Trenčín]] {{National Road Number Czech Republic|50}}{{E|50}} = First option ====
Take tram number 8 to station "Krásného", from the station go to the overbridge. To Olomouc you will stay over head 30 minutes.
==== Second option ====
Take the trolleybus number 33 from the railway station (Hlavní nádraží) to the station "Langrova " (it takes 13 minutes). Cross the street and go up the street Slavkovská, after two minutes you come to a main road which you also cross and continue on a footpath straight for another 50 meters to a petrol station which already lies on a highway.
==== Third option ====
Best spot (for D1 only): From the stop Úzká (next to the big Tesco close to train station) or bus station "Zvonařka" take bus 602 or 702 to "Jiříkovice, motorest Rohlenka" (about 20min). Cross the street and you are at a huge petrol station (with KFC, McD, etc.) which is outside of Brno right at D1. Lot of drivers to Olomouc and Ostrava.
Alternatively if you don't want to take a bus to Rohlenka, you can get there by one more car hichthiking as well. Take a bus 33 from Hlavní nádraží (train station) and go to stop "Slatina sídliště" (terminal). Go right and you will see a roundabout 50 m ahead. If you cross it straight and hitchhike there, you'll get to Rohlenka in 15 minutes without paying the bus. (good choice if you have already ticket for Brno public transport)
=== North towards [[Pardubice]], [[Hradec Králové]] {{National Road Number Czech RepublicDcz|43}}{{E|461}} ===
There are several good spots and hitchhiking is easy in every village/town on the way.
At the highway connection near tram 1 stop "Tylova".<br />
Both spots are probably better than Second option spot. [http://hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=Brno&action=edit§ion=11 Add more specific info please]
