Kranj is the 4th biggest city in Slovenia and it is the main city of Gorenjska, which is the north western informal region.

Hitchhiking out

Kranj lies besides the A2 motorway. Both motorway entrances are about 45 minutes of walking away from the city centre.
Local roads are also good for closer destinations.

Southeast towards Ljubljana

You have two options, the local road Ljubljanska cesta or the motorway entrance Kranj vzhod (vzhod means east in Slovenian) .

  1. Kranj vzhod: Walk in the east direction on the Cesta Staneta Žagarja street. You will leave the city at the shopping center Primskovo at a roundabout near a big Mercator shopping center. Continue in the direction of Brnik Airport and after 1 km you will come to the motorway entrance for Ljubljana.
  2. Ljubljanska cesta: Walk south down hill from the city centre and follow directions for Škofja Loka. When you pass the railroad there is an extra lane where you can try your luck, but know that cars go in many directions here.

Note from Makuc: I haven't tried these spots personally but in theory they seem ok. When someone confirms them, please delete this note. Also, some locals shold add info about city buses, I know they exist, but I don't know their prices and routes.

Hitchhiking spot for direction: Ljubljana
