The Dorohusk-Jahodin border crossing joins Poland, near the city of Chełm, and Ukraine near the city of Kovel. It lies on the highway between Kiev and Lublin, which is Ukrainian road M07 and Polish national road 12.
Walking across this border is not permitted, but hitchhikers can walk up to cars waiting in the queue and ask drivers to take them across.
Hitching out
West into Poland
From immediately after the last checkpoint, next to the parking lot where traders are sorting out wares transported across the border, you can thumb. If you are going far, don’t accept a lift only to Chełm, as you will not have to wait long for a lift straight to Lublin..
