Lviv (Львів) (Polish: Lwów; Russian: Львов, L'vov) is a city in Western Ukraine, about 70km away from Polish border.

Hitching out

West towards Poland

Not exactly hitching, but you can get a marshrutka from the train station going to the Polish border, the Shegyni-Medyka crossing, for 14 UAH/~$3 (March 2008). Look or ask for one that says Lviv - Shegyni (Львів-Шегині). It is allowed to cross the border on foot. There might be a long queue, as cigarette smuggling is a big problem so they have to do random checks. If you are not Polish or Ukrainian let the border guards know and they will move you to the front of the queue.
