Lviv
,no edit summary
Not exactly hitching, but you can get a marshrutka (minibus) from the train station going to the closest Polish border point, the [[Medyka-Shehyni border crossing]], which is not far from [[Przemyśl]] in Poland and it is allowed to cross on foot. This minibus costs 25 UAH as of September 2014. Look or ask for one that says ''Lviv - Shegyni'' (Львів-Шегині)
== Accommodation and Sleep ==
There are some good places to pitch a tent in Lviv. If you look for a calm and safe place you may choose Vynnyky forest of Bryukhovychi forest.
To reach Vynnyky forest take bus №50 from the Puppet Theatre (Lyalkovyi Teatr) and go by it to vul. George Washington. Then go out and move a little bit back to vul. Pasichna. Turn right (to the south) and go around 500 metres along the street looking to the left for an entrance to the forest. Then just find a place you like. The forest is a popular place for picnics at weekends and holidays, but further from the main trails it's not so typical to meet people and especially police.
To reach Bryukhovychi forest is more difficult as since some years there has been no public transport between Lviv and Bryukhovychi. Sure you can take a taxi or walk on feet but if that doesn't feet you just use the Vynnyky forest option.
If you prefer a place close to the city center, there are few big parks in Lviv where it's possible to pitch a tent, like Vysokyi Zamok, Shevchenkivskyi Hay (not the museum but its "wild" part known in Lviv as Kaiserwald) or Pohulyanka. Sure this options provide some risks but if you'll find a relatively hidden place there's not much probability someone will bother you.
