The '''Horgos-Röszke (border crossing''' links [[Hungary]]) - Horgos (, near the city of [[Szeged]], with [[Serbia]]) is a border crossing point between near the two countriestown of Horgos. It  The crossing is situated on the E75, which is a motorway to [[Budapest]] and an express carriageway to [[Novi Sad]]. Heavy There is heavy traffic, both trucks and cars. Hungary Walking across this border is part permitted, and in fact you should get out of the [[Schengen Agreement]] but Serbia isn't, so checking can be pretty accuratecar and walk across because there is often a long wait for border controls. *There are actually two separate border crossings about 150 meters apart. Leave TheLoneBaker was told that walking across the truck highway crossing was not allowed and cross that the crossing for foot traffic was a short distance off to the left. However, the officer in question allowed her to simply approach cars near the front of the line to find a ride across the border on footinstead. <map lat='46.176036' lng='19. 979103' zoom='11' view='0' float='right' height='270' width='350' /> == Hitching out == === Into Hungary === On Hungarian side walk for 300 meters and you will find a petrol station where you can ask drivers. Be aware that most of the cars are Serbian side drivers going somewhere nearby, so it happened is not that easy to [[pite]] twice get away, but you will not starve there either. === Into Serbia === Whether you can hitch from the border depends on the mood of the police that he was sent away by day. Sometimes there's no problem with standing a few meters down from passport control, and you might even see other hitchhikers. At other times, the police may ask you to move to the petrol station 1.5 km down the road. However, if they ask you to move, it often suffices to walk another 200 m down to the green road sign and hitch from there. There's, however, a big parking lot with insurance and customs agents' booths right after you walk out of the control booths - a lot of people stop here to get some fresh air, get their paperwork in order or to take a leak. This is a perfect chance to talk to people and score direct rides into Bulgaria and even deep into Turkey! Look for out-of-place plates such as UK, Austria, Germany or Netherlands - these are almost exclusively Bulgarian and Turkish expatriates. A lot of opportunities here! The cops also can't kick you out of a parking lot - you're obviously getting insurance! This is especially true between May and August. Many of the drivers are ethnic Hungarians who are going no further than [[Subotica]]. If you want to get to [[Novi Sad]] or [[Beograd]], write it on a sign. If you want to get a lift to southern Serbia, [[Macedonia]] or [[Bulgaria]], it is best to write a sign "Bulgaria", because very many Bulgarians are driving back from Western Europe through this border crossing. Even if you are not going so far, you can rely on them to leave you at, for example, the roadbig toll station after [[Beograd]]. [[File:Röszke.jpg|300px]] [[Category:Hungary]][[Category:Serbia]][[Category:E75]][[Category:Border crossings]]
