Most convinient is to take the local train to Isktim, located 60 km South of Novosibirsk. The price for the ticket will be around 1 Euro. After arrving there, you can either walk to the long distance bus station, or just take a local Marschrutka there. The bus station is outside the town on the road to Barnaul, so you can just hitch-hike on the opposite side.

Hitchhiking in

If you were lucky enough to get a transit car passing by Novosibirsk via Severnyi ob'ezd but you still need to visit a city ask your driver to stop near police checkpoint and walk it the west a bit to busstop Poselok Sadovyi on the norhern side of the road. Take bus 1153 or any other (they all goes at the same place) to metro Zaeltcovskaya. This is the only way to get into the city via public transportation from Severnyi ob'ezd.

From metro Zaeltcovskaya take bus 1153 or 1053 and ride until Poselok Sadovyi busstop then walk a bit to police check point and hitch right after.
