Murmansk

Murmansk (Russian: Му́рманск) is a city in Russia.

Hitching out

North-East towards Norway / South towards Petrozavodsk

Take bus #18 or trolleybus #4 from the train/busstation and get out at Dostoevskogo - one of the last stops before the buses return to the city centre. A ticket will cost your 19,- RUB and you can buy it from the lady in the bus.

When you arrive at the Dostoevskogo stop, you will see a huge bridge on your right hand sight. This is the only in bridge around Murmansk over the Kola Bay and, therefore, the M18 highway with Murmansk. Before crossing the bridge, you will see traffic lights. This is a good place to put your thumbs in the air to get a ride either southwards towards Petrozavodsk and Saint Petersburg, or northwards towards the Norwegian border.
